All video tapes on our site are VHS NTSC format (Canada & USA) unless otherwise marked. We do not carry PAL or SECAM for those customers outside of North America that require this format.

The NTSC Standard (National Television System Committee) is used by many countries on the American continent as well as many Asian countries including Japan.

The PAL standard (Phase Alternating Line) was implemented in most European countries except for France.

The SECAM standard (Sequential Couleur Avec Memoire or Sequential Colour with Memory) was implemented in France. 

This information has been researched from various sources and is believed to be accurate. No responsibility can be assumed for any errors.

If you spot any errors or omissions please Email us with your corrections.

Many UK and European VCRs are dual format and will play both NTSC and PAL videos. Please check before ordering.
