Thirteen Overseas Countries and Territories (OCTs) are associated with the European Union. The OCTs are in the Atlantic, Antarctic, Arctic, Caribbean, Indian and Pacific regions. All are islands, and one of them has no permanent population. [...]
It is important to distinguish the OCTs from the Outermost Regions (OR) of the EU, which are an integral part of the EU and its single market.
