Google Search now supports disallowed regions for videos

Google Search now supports specifying where (regions) a video should not be shown in the structured video data and video SEO documentation. A new property inelevibleRegion has been added to the Google structured video data documentation.

The ineligibleRegion property allows you to specify the region where the video is not allowed. If you do not specify this property, Google assumes that the video is allowed everywhere.

You can specify the countries in ISO 3166-1 two- or three-letter format. For multiple values, use multiple country codes (e.g. a JSON-LD array or multiple meta tags in microdata).

Google also supports the “regionsAllowed” property if you would rather just specify where the video is allowed rather than specifying where the video is not allowed.

Google added the following details to the video documents:

When you use VideoObject structured data to describe a video, set the regionsAllowed property to specify which regions can receive the video result. If you omit this property, all regions can see the video in the search results.

Alternatively, you can use the “ineligibleRegion” property to specify which regions cannot receive the video result.

To indicate that the video is not allowed in the US:
