Blu-ray Disc media have region codes written in letters to indicate a particular zone or region where you can play the discs. Check the following region codes below :

• Region A: North America, South America, U.S. Territories, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and other areas of Southeast Asia
• Region B: Europe, Africa, Middle East, Australia, and New Zealand.
• Region C: Asia (except for Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and other areas of Southeast Asia)
• Region ABC : Classified as region-free as it applies to countries listed in Regions A, B, and C.

The region code for Blu-ray Discs is on the disc or located at the back of the disc case.



Note:

• Some region-free discs may have no codes written on the disc or disc cover.
• Ultra HD Blu-ray Discs are region-free and can play on devices that supports Ultra HD Blu-ray, regardless of the region where they were purchased.

• This applies to computers or Blu-ray Disc players purchased in other regions, unless otherwise specified in the player or in the computer's documentation. Check your device manual.
