Avoid using it, and update existing code if possible; see the compatibility table at the bottom of this page to guide your decision. Be aware that this feature may cease to work at any time.
Non-standard: This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.
The read-only region
property of the
PaymentAddress
interface returns a string containing the top-level
administrative subdivision of the country in which the address is located. For example,
this may be a state, province, oblast, or prefecture.
Value
A string specifying the top-level administrative subdivision within the country in which the address is located. This region has different names in different countries, such as: state, province, oblast, prefecture, or county.
Usage notes
In some countries, like Belgium, it's uncommon for people to provide a region as part
of their postal address. In such cases, the browser returns an empty string as the value
of region
. However, the address should still be acceptable to use for its
intended purpose (e.g., to ship a product). However, always verify addresses to make
sure what the user provides is usable.
