origin=* describes the country or region of origin of goods sold by a shop. This key is especially helpful for shops which sell goods imported from one or a few countries.

This key is suitable for shops selling non-food items; for shops specialized in selling regional food items (shop=food), preferably use cuisine=* instead.

Examples

The value should be the adjective form of the country or region of origin:

Notice. The origin=* key is of type "comma-separated values", so the above table will not show all uses of a given value.

Extensions

Since origin=* specifically describes goods originating from elsewhere, the extension origin:service=* describes services originating from elsewhere. Altogether, goods and services originating from elsewhere are accounted for.
