Nations edit

192 nations registered for the Expo (three countries that had already confirmed its participation needed to withdraw because of internal problems: Burkina Faso, Bhutan and Kuwait).[1] These are 186 independent countries, recognized by the UN (the home country, China, included); two non UN-recognized nations: Chinese Taipei and Palestine; two associated states of New Zealand: Cook Islands and Niue, and the two Chinese SARs: Hong Kong and Macau.

The next table shows, by confirmation date, the nations that have notified the Government of the People's Republic of China its participation at the Expo; the fourth column indicates if the state had constructed its own individual pavilion; the last column indicates the section which the pavilion was located within the Expo site.
