I do not know for certain if the Brunton Nomad V2 Pro Digital Compass will work in other countries but I see no reason why it would not. It is NOT a GPS and does not use Satellites. According to the included product manual: "the altimeter has a 1 meter (or one foot) resolution and has a working range from -700 meters (-2296 feet) to 9000 meters (29520 feet)." So just keep it in that range, which shouldn't be hard, and you are good to go. EDIT (Jersey Hiker): Yes, this will work anywhere on Earth. Altitude is determined by air pressure, and the compass is simply a digital version of a standard magnetic compass - no sattelite or other local data system is used.
