5Use these identifiers accurately
The two-letter code BO is the compact ISO identifier used in addresses, locale selectors, and many data feeds. The dialing prefix +591 belongs at the start of an international phone number. Time zone names such as America/La_Paz should be preferred over a fixed UTC offset because they carry daylight-saving rules.
