Belgium has enclaves in the Netherlands (Baarle-Hertog), Netherlands has enclaves within those enclaves. Same, but even more complicated along the India-Bangladesh border.

As much as I like the theme of this quiz, I would appreciate if you completed the list. Further to the ones mentioned by user ponnuki above, these ones are missing: Germany (Busingen), TR Northern Cyprus (depending on whether you accept TRNC sovereignty), UAE (a counter-enclave within the Omani enclave), Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Malawi (2 islands), Spain (Llivia), Bosnia Herzegovina (Sastavci), Israel (depending on whether you accept Palestinian sovereignty), Croatia (Brezovica), Italy (Campione d'Italia) and 3 Argentinean islands in Paraguayan waters.

The Argentinian and Malawian islands don't count because they don't have a land border with another country.

The UN doesn't recognize Turkish Northern Cyprus, and because the Palestinians aren't officially recognized with their own sovereign lands, I didn't include Israel, either. Everything else, though, has been updated. Thanks for your input!

PS: France? Don't you mean the other way round, with Llivia being a Spanish exclave? Otherwise I believe France only has domestic exclaves (Valréas). I cannot recall an international one.

Indeed, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indo-Bangladesh_enclaves. There's even an Indian enclave within a Bangladeshi enclave which is within an Indian enclave...
