+title: Access Durable Object jurisdiction via `ctx.id.jurisdiction`
+description: Read the jurisdiction of a jurisdiction-restricted Durable Object from within the object itself.
+products:
+  - durable-objects
+  - workers
+date: 2026-03-26
+---
+
+`ctx.id.jurisdiction` inside a Durable Object now reports the [jurisdiction](/durable-objects/reference/data-location/#restrict-durable-objects-to-a-jurisdiction) that the object was created in, matching the value seen client-side. If a Worker accesses a Durable Object through a jurisdiction-restricted namespace — for example `env.MY_DURABLE_OBJECT.jurisdiction("eu")` — the same jurisdiction is available on `ctx.id.jurisdiction` inside the object, so you can make region-aware decisions without passing the jurisdiction through method arguments or persisting it in storage.
+
+`jurisdiction` is preserved across every ID-construction path, including:
+
+- IDs created from a jurisdiction-restricted subnamespace, for example `env.MY_DURABLE_OBJECT.jurisdiction("eu").idFromName("foo")` or `.newUniqueId()`.
+- IDs created via `env.MY_DURABLE_OBJECT.newUniqueId({ jurisdiction: "eu" })`.
+- IDs restored from a string via `idFromString()` — the jurisdiction is encoded in the string itself, so it works on any namespace binding.
+- IDs observed inside [alarm handlers](/durable-objects/api/alarms/) for alarms scheduled on 2026-03-15 or later.
+
+```js
+export class RegionalRoom extends DurableObject {
+	async fetch(request) {
+		// "eu" when accessed through env.MY_DURABLE_OBJECT.jurisdiction("eu")
+		const region = this.ctx.id.jurisdiction;
+		return new Response(`Hello from ${region ?? "the default region"}!`);
+	}
+}
+
+// Worker
+export default {
+	async fetch(request, env) {
+		const stub = env.MY_DURABLE_OBJECT.jurisdiction("eu").getByName("general");
+		return stub.fetch(request);
+	},
+};
+```
+
+`ctx.id.jurisdiction` is `undefined` for Durable Objects that were not created in a jurisdiction-restricted namespace. Alarms scheduled before 2026-03-15 also do not have `jurisdiction` stored; to backfill the value, reschedule the alarm from a `fetch()` or RPC handler.

 `name` is an optional property of a `DurableObjectId`, which returns the name that was used to create the `DurableObjectId` via [`DurableObjectNamespace::idFromName`](/durable-objects/api/namespace/#idfromname).

+`ctx.id.name` is especially useful inside [alarm handlers](/durable-objects/api/alarms/), where there is no calling client to pass the name as an argument. When the alarm fires, `ctx.id.name` holds the same name the object was originally accessed with.

 :::note
 Alarms created before 2026-03-15 do not have `name` stored. When such an alarm fires, `ctx.id.name` will be `undefined`, and any new alarm scheduled from that handler will also lack a `name`. To fix this, reschedule the alarm from a `fetch()` or RPC handler where `name` is available.

+`jurisdiction` is an optional property of a `DurableObjectId`, which returns the [jurisdiction](/durable-objects/reference/data-location/#restrict-durable-objects-to-a-jurisdiction) the ID is restricted to, such as `"eu"` or `"fedramp"`.

+### Read the jurisdiction from inside a Durable Object
+
+The jurisdiction of a Durable Object is available inside the object via [`ctx.id.jurisdiction`](/durable-objects/api/id/#jurisdiction). The value is preserved across `toString()` and `idFromString()` round-trips and is also available inside [alarm handlers](/durable-objects/api/alarms/) for alarms scheduled on 2026-03-15 or later, which makes it suitable for region-aware logic inside the Durable Object.
