Written by Olga Tereshina

You can find the list of the countries with states on the States page of your store's Admin area:

  • X-Cart 5.4.x - Store Setup > Countries, States, and Zones > States

  • X-Cart 5.5.x - Store Management > Localization > States

By default, there are 11 countries with states: Argentina, Brazil, Canada, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, Thailand, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

If a store admin adds states to a country that does not have them by default, it will also be present in the list of countries with states.
