TIS Territory Codes
Territory codes follow the CISAC Territory Information System (TIS). They appear in:
parties[].territories[].territory.include[]/exclude[](collection scope)parties[].relinquishment.scope.territories(PWR relinquishment)
Ownership (shareTypes[].type: "own") must use empty include and exclude arrays — not TIS-scoped. See Territories & Shares.
Published lookup (validation 1.1.0)
The machine-readable lookup table is published at:
cwr_lookup_data_types_v1.0_r0.json
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Source | CISAC TIS database export — 241 territories (Validation 1.1.1) |
| Set key | sets.tisNumericCodes |
| Schema | Enums injected into cwr-json-schema-v1.0.schema.json |
Example — check whether a code is in the published set:
const lookupUrl =
'https://d7ap24707c.execute-api.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/staging/api/v1/lookups/cwr_lookup_data_types_v1.0_r0.json';
const { sets } = await fetch(lookupUrl).then((r) => r.json());
const tisCodes = new Set(sets.tisNumericCodes);
console.log(tisCodes.size);
console.log(tisCodes.has('2136')); // WorldOfficial CISAC publications remain authoritative for disputes; see cisac.org.
