How long does it take to rename a place in other country?

Hi, I’m is USA, renamed a place in Ukraine few days ago (current name of the place is a joke) Any suggestions how long does it take to review the edit? Thank you.

Hi @marykravets

There is not an answer to your question. An edit can stay pending for seconds, hours, or months, or it can be rejected instantly or after (again) hours, days or months. Normally the country from where you make the edit is not important

Mostly depends of:

  • The possibility of Google to verify the information Online. If there are no information about the places available online, probably the edit will be rejected.
  • Country, region, categories. In some area Google do not accept edits for some area, or for some category. Due to the actual international situation, your edit may stay pending for a long time
  • Your “trusted score”. More approved edits you have, more Google will trust you

For more information you can read: Why is my edit status “Pending” or “Not Applied”?

Additionally, you can try to “send a feedback” to the team, for a manual check. Please read: Report an error on the map
