Character Sets and Collations

Learn about character sets in MariaDB Server. This section details how different character sets and collations impact string storage, comparison, and sorting within your database.

Character Set and Collation Overview

Learn the core concepts of character sets and collations in MariaDB, including how they define string storage and sorting rules.

What are Character Sets and Collations?

A character set is a set of characters, while a collation comprises the rules for comparing and sorting a particular character set.

For example, a subset of a character set could consist of the letters A, B and C. A default collation could define these as appearing in an ascending order of A, B, C.

If we consider different case characters, more complexity is added. A binary collation would evaluate the characters A and a differently, ordering them in a particular way. A case-insensitive collation would evaluate A and a equivalently, while the German phone book collation evaluates the characters ue and ü equivalently.

A character set can have many collations associated with it, while each collation is only associated with one character set. In MariaDB, the character set name is always part of the collation name. For example, the latin1_german1_ci collation applies only to the latin1 character set. Each character set also has one default collation. The latin1 default collation is latin1_swedish_ci.

As an example, by default, the character y comes between x and z, while in Lithuanian, it's sorted between i and k. Similarly, the German phone book order is different to the German dictionary order, so while they share the same character set, the collation is different.

Viewing Character Sets and Collations

The default character set is utf8mb4 and the default collation is utf8mb4_uca1400_ai_ci. This may differ in some distros, see for example .

The default is latin1 and the default collation is latin1_swedish_ci. This may differ in some distros, see for example .

You can view a full list of character sets and collations supported by MariaDB at , or see what's supported on your server with the and commands.

By default, A comes before Z, so the following evaluates to true:

By default, comparisons are case-insensitive:

Changing Character Sets and Collations

Character sets and collations can be set from the server level right down to the column level, as well as for client-server communication.

For example, ue and ü are by default evaluated differently.

By using the system variable to change the connection character set to latin1_german2_ci, or German phone book, the same two characters will evaluate as equivalent.

Internationalization and Localization

Discover how MariaDB supports internationalization and localization, enabling databases to store and process data in multiple languages.

Unicode

Explore MariaDB's support for Unicode, covering the differences between the utf8mb3 and utf8mb4 character sets for multi-byte storage.

Unicode is a standard for encoding text across multiple writing systems. MariaDB supports a number of character sets for storing Unicode data:

Character Set
Description

ucs2

UCS-2, each character is represented by a 2-byte code with the most significant byte first. Fixed-length 16-bit encoding.

utf8

utf8 is an alias for utf8mb3, but this can changed to ut8mb4 by changing the default value of the system variable.

utf8mb3

UTF-8 encoding using one to three bytes per character. Basic Latin letters, numbers and punctuation use one byte. European and Middle East letters mostly fit into 2 bytes. Korean, Chinese, and Japanese ideographs use 3-bytes. No supplementary characters are stored. Until , this was an alias for utf8. From , utf8 is by default an alias for utf8mb3, but this can changed to ut8mb4 by changing the default value of the system variable.

utf8mb4

Support for the UCA-14.0.0 collations was added in ().

Support for the MySQL 8.0 UCA-9-0-0 (utf8mb4_0900_...) collations will be added to .

Coordinated Universal Time

Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is the primary time standard by which the world regulates clocks and time, and is the internal storage format for MariaDB timestamp values.

UTC stands for Coordinated Universal Time. It is the world standard for regulating time.

MariaDB stores values internally in UTC, converting them to the required time zone as required.

In general terms it is equivalent to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), but UTC is used in technical contexts, as it is precisely defined at the subsecond level.

Time zones are offset relative to UTC. For example, time in Tonga is UTC + 13, so 03h00 UTC is 16h00 in Tonga.

UTF-8 encoding the same as utf8mb3 but which stores supplementary characters in four bytes.

utf16

UTF-16, same as ucs2, but stores supplementary characters in 32 bits. 16 or 32-bits.

utf32

UTF-32, fixed-length 32-bit encoding.

Locales Plugin

The LOCALES plugin enables the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.LOCALES table and SHOW LOCALES statement, allowing users to view all locales compiled into the server.

The LOCALES plugin creates the LOCALES table in the INFORMATION_SCHEMA database. The plugin also adds the SHOW LOCALES statement.The table and statement can be queried to see all locales that are compiled into the server.

Installing the Plugin

Although the plugin's shared library is distributed with MariaDB by default, the plugin is not actually installed by MariaDB by default. There are two methods that can be used to install the plugin with MariaDB.

The first method can be used to install the plugin without restarting the server. You can install the plugin dynamically by executing INSTALL SONAME or . For example:

The second method can be used to tell the server to load the plugin when it starts up. The plugin can be installed this way by providing the or the options. This can be specified as a command-line argument to or it can be specified in a relevant server in an . For example:

Uninstalling the Plugin

You can uninstall the plugin dynamically by executing or . For example:

If you installed the plugin by providing the or the options in a relevant server in an , then those options should be removed to prevent the plugin from being loaded the next time the server is restarted.

Example

Options

locales

  • Description: Controls how the server should treat the plugin when the server starts up.

    • Valid values are:

      • OFF - Disables the plugin without removing it from the table.

ON - Enables the plugin. If the plugin cannot be initialized, then the server still continues starting up, but the plugin will be disabled.
  • FORCE - Enables the plugin. If the plugin cannot be initialized, then the server fails to start with an error.

  • FORCE_PLUS_PERMANENT - Enables the plugin. If the plugin cannot be initialized, then the server fails to start with an error. In addition, the plugin cannot be uninstalled with UNINSTALL SONAME or UNINSTALL PLUGIN while the server is running.

    Setting Character Sets and Collations

    Learn how to configure character sets and collations at the server, table, and column levels to ensure correct data handling.

    The default character set is utf8mb4 and the default collation is utf8mb4_uca1400_ai_ci. This may differ in some distros, see for example Differences in MariaDB in Debian.

    The default character set is latin1 and the default collation is latin1_swedish_ci. This may differ in some distros, see for example Differences in MariaDB in Debian.

    The character sets and the collations can be specified from the server right down to the column level, as well as for client-server connections. When changing a character set and not specifying a collation, the default collation for the new character set is always used.

    Character sets and collations always cascade down, so a column without a specified collation will look for the table default, the table for the database, and the database for the server. It's therefore possible to have extremely fine-grained control over all the character sets and collations used in your data.

    Default collations for each character set can be viewed with the statement, for example, to find the default collation for the latin2 character set:

    Server Level

    The system variable can be used to change the default server character set. It can be set both on startup or dynamically, with the command:

    Similarly, the variable is used for setting the default server collation.

    Database Level

    The and statements have optional character set and collation clauses. If these are left out, the server defaults are used.

    To determine the default character set used by a database, use:

    Alternatively, for the character set and collation:

    It is also possible to specify only the collation, and, since each collation only applies to one character set, the associated character set will automatically be specified.

    Although there are and system variables which can be set dynamically, these are used for determining the character set and collation for the default database, and should only be set by the server.

    Table Level

    The and statements support optional character set and collation clauses, a MariaDB and MySQL extension to standard SQL.

    If neither character set nor collation is provided, the database default will be used. If only the character set is provided, the default collation for that character set will be used . If only the collation is provided, the associated character set will be used. See .

    If no collation is provided, the collation will be set to the default collation for that character set. See .

    For or columns, CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET changes the data type if needed to ensure the new column is long enough to store as many characters as the original column.

    For example, an ascii TEXT column requires a single byte per character, so the column can hold up to 65,535 characters. If the column is converted to utf8mb4, 4 bytes can be required for each character, so the column will be converted to to be able to hold the same number of characters.

    CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET binary will convert , and columns to , and respectively, and from that point will no longer have a character set, or be affected by future CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET statements.

    To avoid data type changes resulting from CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET, use MODIFY on the individual columns instead. For example:

    Column Level

    Character sets and collations can also be specified for columns that are character types CHAR, TEXT or VARCHAR. The and statements support optional character set and collation clauses for this purpose - unlike those at the table level, the column level definitions are standard SQL.

    If neither collation nor character set is provided, the table default is used. If only the character set is specified, that character set's default collation is used, while if only the collation is specified, the associated character set is used.

    When using to change a column's character set, you need to ensure the character sets are compatible with your data. MariaDB will map the data as best it can, but it's possible to lose data if care is not taken.

    The statement or INFORMATION SCHEMA database can be used to determine column character sets and collations.

    Filenames

    The system variable has controlled interpretation of file names that are given as literal strings. This affects the following statements and functions:

    Literals

    By default, the character set and collation used for literals is determined by the and system variables. However, they can also be specified explicitly:

    The character set of string literals that do not have a character set introducer is determined by the system variable.

    This query always returns the same character set name in both columns.:

    and are normally (e.g. during handshake, or after a SET NAMES query) are set to equal values. However, it's possible to set to different values.

    Examples

    Examples when setting @@character_set_client and @@character_set_connection to different values can be useful:

    Example 1:

    Suppose, we have a utf8 database with this table:

    Now we connect to it using a client which uses the DOS character set (cp850 on a West European machine), and want to fetch all records that are equal to 'ö' according to the German phonebook rules.

    It's possible with the following:

    This will return:

    It works as follows:

    1. The client sends the query using cp850.

    2. The server, when parsing the query, creates a utf8 string literal by converting 'ö' from @@character_set_client (cp850) to @@character_set_connection (utf8).

    3. The server applies the collation utf8_german2_ci to this string literal.

    Note, if we rewrite the script like this:

    We get an error:

    Reason:

    • In step #2, the literal is not converted to utf8 any more and is created using cp850.

    • In step #3, the server fails to apply utf8_german2_ci to an cp850 string literal.

    Example 2:

    Suppose we have a utf8 database and use "mysql.exe" from a West European machine again.

    We can do this:

    It creates a table with a column of the type VARCHAR(1) CHARACTER SET utf8.

    Note, if we rewrite the query like this:

    It creates a table with a column of the type VARCHAR(1) CHARACTER SET cp850, which is probably not a good idea.

    N

    Also, N or n can be used as prefix to convert a literal into the National Character set (which in MariaDB is always utf8).

    For example:

    Stored Programs and Views

    The literals which occur in stored programs and views, by default, use the character set and collation which was specified by the and system variables when the stored program was created. These values can be seen using the SHOW CREATE statements. To change the character sets used for literals in an existing stored program, it is necessary to drop and recreate the stored program.

    For stored routines parameters and return values, a character set and a collation can be specified via the CHARACTER SET and COLLATE clauses.

    The following example shows that the character set and collation are determined at the time of creation:

    The following example shows how to specify a function parameters character set and collation:

    Changing Default Collation

    It is possible to change the default collation associated with a particular character set. The system variable accepts a comma-delimited list of character sets and new default collations, for example:

    It is not possible to change the default collation associated with a particular character set.

    The new variable will take effect in all cases where a character set is explicitly or implicitly specified without an explicit COLLATE clause, including but not limited to:

    • Column collation

    • Table collation

    • Database collation

    • CHAR(expr USING csname)

    Example: Changing the Default Character Set To UTF-8

    To change the default character set from latin1 to UTF-8, the following settings should be specified in the my.cnf configuration file.

    Note that the default-character-set option is a client option, not a server option.

    Setting the Language for Error Messages

    Learn how to configure the lc_messages and lc_messages_dir system variables to display server error messages in a supported local language.

    MariaDB server error messages are by default in English. However, MariaDB server also supports error message localization in many different languages. Each supported language has its own version of the error message file called errmsg.sys in a dedicated directory for that language.

    Supported Languages for Error Messages

    Error message localization is supported for the following languages:

    • Bulgarian

    • Chinese (from , , , , )

    • Czech

    • Danish

    • Dutch

    • English

    • Estonian

    • French

    • Georgian (from )

    • German

    • Greek

    • Hindi

    • Hungarian

    • Italian

    • Romanian

    • Russian

    • Serbian

    • Slovak

    • Spanish

    • Swahili (from )

    • Swedish

    • Ukrainian

    Setting the lc_messages and lc_messages_dir System Variables

    The and system variables can be used to set the used for error messages.

    The system variable can be specified as a name. The language of the associated will be used for error messages. See for a list of supported locales and their associated languages.

    The system variable is set to en_US by default, which means that error messages are in English by default.

    If the system variable is set to a valid name, but the server can't find an for the language associated with the , then the default language will be used instead.

    This system variable can be specified as command-line arguments to or it can be specified in a relevant server in an . For example:

    The system variable can also be changed dynamically with . For example:

    If a server has the system variable set to the fr_CA locale like the above example, then error messages would be in French. For example:

    The system variable can be specified either as the path to the directory storing the server's or as the path to the directory storing the specific language's .

    The server initially tries to interpret the value of the system variable as a path to the directory storing the server's . Therefore, it constructs the path to the language's by concatenating the value of the system variable with the language name of the specified by the system variable .

    If the server does not find the for the language, then it tries to interpret the value of the system variable as a direct path to the directory storing the specific language's .

    This system variable can be specified as command-line arguments to or it can be specified in a relevant server in an .

    For example, to specify the path to the directory storing the server's :

    Or to specify the path to the directory storing the specific language's :

    The system variable can not be changed dynamically.

    Setting the --language Option

    The option can also be used to set the server's language for error messages, but it is deprecated. It is recommended to set the system variable instead.

    The option can be specified either as a language name or as the path to the directory storing the language's . See for a list of supported locales and their associated languages.

    This option can be specified as command-line arguments to or it can be specified in a relevant server in an .

    For example, to specify a language name:

    Or to specify the path to the directory storing the language's :

    Character Set

    The character set that the error messages are returned in is determined by the variable, which defaults to UTF8.

    LOAD_FILE()

    The server uses utf8_german2_ci for comparison.

    CONVERT(expr USING csname)

  • CAST(expr AS CHAR CHARACTER SET csname)

  • '' - character string literal

  • _utf8mb3'text' - a character string literal with an introducer

  • _utf8mb3 X'61' - a character string literal with an introducer with hex notation

    Time Zones

    Manage time zone settings in MariaDB, including the global server time zone, session time zone, and system time zone configurations.

    MariaDB keeps track of several time zone settings.

    Setting the Time Zone

    The time_zone system variable is the primary way to set the time zone. It can be specified in one of the following formats:

    • The default value is SYSTEM, which indicates that the system time zone defined in the system variable will be used. Note that if you are using SYSTEM with replication in either statement or mixed mode, you MUST use the same value for system_time_zone on all replicas (otherwise TIMESTAMP columns will not replicate correctly). See below for more information.

    • An offset from , such as +5:00 or -9:00, can also be used.

    • If the time zone tables in the database were loaded, then a named time zone, such as America/New_York, Africa/Johannesburg, or Europe/Helsinki, is also permissible. See below for more information.

    There are two time zone settings that can be set within MariaDB--the global server time zone, and the time zone for your current session. There is also a third time zone setting which may be relevant--the system time zone.

    Global Server Time Zone

    The global server time zone can be changed at server startup by setting the --default-time-zone option either on the command-line or in a server in an . For example:

    The global server time zone can also be changed dynamically by setting the system variable as a user account that has the privilege. For example:

    The current global server time zone can be viewed by looking at the global value of the system variable. For example:

    Session Time Zone

    Each session that connects to the server will also have its own time zone. This time zone is initially inherited from the global value of the system variable, which sets the session value of the same variable.

    A session's time zone can be changed dynamically by setting the system variable. For example:

    The current session time zone can be viewed by looking at the session value of the system variable. For example:

    System Time Zone

    The system time zone is determined when the server starts, and it sets the value of the system variable. The system time zone is usually read from the operating system's environment. You can change the system time zone in several different ways, such as:

    • If you are starting the server with , then you can set the system time zone with the --timezone option either on the command-line or in the [mariadbd-safe] in an . For example:

    • If you are using a Unix-like operating system, then you can set the system time zone by setting the TZ in your shell before starting the server. For example:

    • On some Linux operating systems, you can change the default time zone for the whole system by making the symbolic link point to the desired time zone. For example:

    • On some Debian-based Linux operating systems, you can change the default time zone for the whole system by executing the following:

    • On Linux operating systems that use , you can change the default time zone for the whole system by using the utility. For example:

    Time Zone Effects

    Time Zone Effects on Functions

    Some functions are affected by the time zone settings. These include:

    Some functions are not affected. These include:

    Time Zone Effects on Data Types

    Some data types are affected by the time zone settings.

    • - See for information on how this data type is affected by time zones.

    • - See for information on how this data type is affected by time zones.

    mysql Time Zone Tables

    The database contains a number of time zone tables:

    By default, these time zone tables in the database are created, but not populated.

    If you are using a Unix-like operating system, then you can populate these tables using the utility, which uses the data available on Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD and Solaris.

    If you are using Windows, then you will need to import pre-populated time zone tables. These are available at .

    Time zone data needs to be updated on occasion. When that happens, the time zone tables may need to be reloaded.

    Supported Character Sets and Collations

    View a comprehensive list of the character sets and collations available in MariaDB database, including their default properties and maximum lengths.

    Character Sets

    You can see which character sets are available in a particular version by running the SHOW CHARACTER SET statement or by querying the Information Schema CHARACTER_SETS Table.

    It is possible to change the default collation associated with a character set. See Changing Default Collation.

    It is not possible to change the default collation associated with a character set. See Changing Default Collation

    MariaDB supports the following character sets:

    Charset
    Description
    Default collation
    Maxlen

    Note that the only supports a limited number of character sets. See .

    Collations

    MariaDB supports the following collations (from ):

    ℹ️ The UCA-14.0.0 collations were added in .

    ℹ️ Before , the utf8mb3* collations listed above were named utf8*.

    ℹ️ added UCA-9.0.0 collations, as well as a Comment column to information_schema.collations, to make it clear that the UCA-9.0.0 collations are mapped to the UCA-14.0.0 collations. The UCA-9.0.0 collations have mainly been added to make it easy to replicate from MySQL 8.0 to MariaDB 11.4.5 and newer.

    Note that some of the collations are used with several different character sets. In this case, the Charset and Id columns are NULL.

    You can find all combinations of the supported character set and collation in the table.

    Case Sensitivity

    A 'ci' at the end of a collation name indicates the collation is case-insensitive. A 'cs' at the end of a collation name indicates the collation is case sensitive.

    NO PAD Collations

    NO PAD collations regard trailing spaces as normal characters. You can get a list of all of these by querying the as follows:

    Accent Insensitivity

    An accent insensitive collation is one where the accented and unaccented versions of a letter are considered to be identical for sorting purposes.

    ℹ️ added the accent insensitivity flag, and new collations are marked with '_ai' or '_as' in the name to indicate this, for example:

    Changes

    • added 184 UCA-14.0.0 collations. Unicode-14.0.0 was released in September 2021. They contain 939 . Old collations based on UCA-4.0.0 and UCA-5.2.0 did not support built-in contractions. This is a step towards better Unicode Collation Algorithm compliance. With built-in contractions, some languages (e.g., Thai) won't need specific collations and will just work with the default "root" collation.

    • changed the utf8 character set by default to be an alias for utf8mb3 rather than the other way around. It can be set to imply utf8mb4 by changing the value of the system variable.

    • added 88 NO PAD

    Server locale settings control the language for date and time functions via lc_time_names and the language for error messages via lc_messages.

    The lc_time_names server system variable sets the language used by the date and time functions DAYNAME(), MONTHNAME(), and DATE_FORMAT(), and the lc_messages sets the language for error messages.

    The list of the locales supported by the current MariaDB installation can be obtained via the LOCALES plugin.

    MariaDB supports the following locale values:

    Locale
    Language
    Territory

    ar_AE

    Arabic

    United Arab Emirates

    Examples

    Setting the and variables to localize the units of date and time, and the server error messages.
