NordVPN has many servers worldwide, from Argentina to the United Arab Emirates. This article will teach you how to find the complete NordVPN server list, which can help you find the best server for troubleshooting connectivity issues or manually setting up connections to our servers.
Where is the NordVPN server list?
The official NordVPN server list contains the NordVPN server locations and the protocols/services supported in each country (e.g., USA, Canada).
Servers tab
The default page shows you the exact server types each country supports. A green check in any of the columns means the country has a server with that attribute. The server types range from Regular to Virtual.
For example, Canada has five checkmarks, meaning it has many regular servers, P2P servers, a few Double VPN servers, and many Dedicated IP servers, but no Virtual ones.
To learn more about the difference between regular and specialty servers, visit our article on different NordVPN server types.
Clicking the arrow next to the country name will open the available NordVPN cities in that country. In contrast, clicking on the country will take you to our website, which has more information on the servers in that country.
Protocols tab
Clicking the Protocols button at the top changes what the green checks indicate.
This section shows which countries support which protocols. The possible protocols are Nordlynx, IKEv2/IPsec, and OpenVPN UDP/TCP. To learn more and to know which protocol could be best for you, visit our article about all NordVPN protocols.
