Oscar Winners by Country 2024

  • Most Academy Award categories are open only to US films. As such, the United States has won more than 3,000 Oscars since the award's inception. However, as the playing field is unequal, US totals are not shown.
  • Totals shown were calculated using the list of winners of the annual Academy Award for Best International Feature Film from 1947 to 2022 (note: Award ceremony typically took place the following year).
  • From 1947 to 1955, the award was known as a Special/Honorary Award. The name was switched to Best Foreign Language Film Award in 1957 and to Best International Feature Film in 2020.
  • No award was given in 1953.
  • Totals shown for submitted films include films that were submitted, but disqualified. Films that were submitted, disqualified, and then resubmitted were counted only upon their initial submission.
  • Regarding countries that no longer exist: Totals for East Germany and West Germany are tallied with Germany, totals for the USSR are credited to Russia, and Czechoslovakian films are credited to the Czech Republic. Totals for Yugoslavia, however, are still listed as Yugoslavia.
