I am looking at the web services at this page: http://www.geonames.org/export/ws-overview.html it says the following:

[This webservice is only available for the US]

I want to confirm that restriction. I guess premium web services would be available worldwide, right?

The data for this service is only available for the US. This kind of data simply does not exist for other countries.

thanks for the reply.

Need a little bit more clarification that it is not available at other country. For this web service country subdivision:[http://www.geonames.org/export/web-services.html#countrysubdiv]

I would think that it is available at other countries as well since I do see all those data at GeoNames dump.
