JM — Jamaica

Jamaica is a Caribbean island nation south of Cuba and west of Hispaniola, known worldwide for reggae music, Bob Marley, Blue Mountain coffee, and sprinting excellence. Kingston, the capital, is the cultural and economic center. Jamaica has an outsized global cultural influence relative to its population of under 3 million. The Jamaican Dollar (JMD) uses the J$ symbol. For developers, the JM country code maps to the en-JM locale for Jamaican English, which has distinctive features and the related Jamaican Patois creole. The .jm domain and +1-876 (also +1-658) dialing codes follow the North American Numbering Plan. Jamaica has two NANP area codes (+1-876 and +1-658), requiring recognition of both for phone validation. Jamaica's large diaspora in the US, UK, and Canada means Jamaican English locale support is relevant across multiple countries. The country's growing BPO sector and improving digital infrastructure make it an increasingly important Caribbean market for technology services.
