VC — Saint Vincent and the Grenadines

Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is a Caribbean island country comprising the main island of Saint Vincent and a chain of smaller Grenadine islands. Kingstown is the capital. The country is known for its pristine sailing waters and the Grenadines' exclusive resort islands. The East Caribbean Dollar (XCD) is the currency. For developers, the VC country code and .vc domain are used for national digital identity — the .vc ccTLD has been marketed for venture capital-related domains. The +1-784 follows the North American Numbering Plan. The en-VC locale handles local English. Saint Vincent and the Grenadines has been involved in cryptocurrency regulation, with some controversies around offshore financial services. The .vc domain's association with 'venture capital' gives it branding value in the tech startup ecosystem. The country's long official name is a common edge case for UI testing with country name display truncation.
