South Carolina – County Numeric Codes

• The six-digit FIPS codes are used primarily by federal government agencies.

• The two-digit county codes shown below are used throughout South Carolina – especially by state government agencies such as the South Carolina Department of Revenue and Department of Transportation. However, some state agencies use different codes for Marion, Marlboro, and McCormick counties, depending on how McCormick is alphabetized.
