Hi! I would like to add Spain:
These are the symbols of the Spanish rating system for television programs:
TP (Todos los públicos). Recommended for all ages.
i (Recomendado especialmente para la infancia). Specially recommended for preschoolers and kids.
7 or +7 : Recommended for people older than 7 years old.
7i or +7i : Recommended for kids older than 7 years old.
12 or +12 : Recommended for people older than 12 years old.
16 or +16 : Recommended for people older than 16 years old.
18 or +18 : Recommended for people older than 18 years old.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_content_rating_systems#Spain
Rating symbols are shown all the programme or when it begins (also after broadcasting adverts), depending on the rating and the hour (12 and over are always shown, and TP is never shown). Years ago, all ratings were shown only al the beginning. On '+18' rated programs, a brief warning tone can also be heard. '18' or '+18' rated programs are not allowed to be shown on free to air television before 10.00 p.m. and after 6.00 a.m.

Please add the dutch "kijkwijzer"
The television rating system in the Netherlands was created in 2001 by the Dutch Institute for the Classification of Audiovisual Media (NICAM) and is known as Kijkwijzer (ViewingGuide or WatchWiser). The same rating systems are used for both television programs and films, and serve partly as guidelines (Programmes with the classification 12 years may only be broadcast from 8pm and with the classification 16 years from 10pm. Cinemas and theaters in the country cannot provide films with the classification 16 years to people under the age of 16). Animated versions of the icons used are also utilized in visual mediums. They are the same as Dutch film ratings. The system is also used for DVDs in Belgium and selectively used on television broadcasts in Flanders.
The following icons are in use for age rating:
Dutch rating AL = Not harmful / All Ages (Alle leeftijden)
Dutch rating 6 = Take care with children under 6 (Let op met kinderen tot 6 jaar)
Dutch rating 9 = Take care with children under 9 (Let op met kinderen tot 9 jaar)
Dutch rating 12 = Take care with children under 12 (Let op met kinderen tot 12 jaar)
Dutch rating 16 = Take care with children under 16 (Let op met kinderen tot 16 jaar)
Dutch rating 18 = Contains adult content (Bevat inhoud voor volwassenen)

Hi, any chance to have Finnish movie and tv content rating system also included?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finnish_Board_of_Film_Classification
The Finnish Board of Film Classification had a film classification system under which films were classified into one of the following categories:
Thanks!

Travis, I know I and others requested it before, and you had implemented the Dutch "kijkwijzer" ratings for movies, but you forgot about the television section. We have quite a lot of great shows! (And our southern neighbours, Belgium, they use our icons on DVD releases too because most content is sold in Belgium and the Netherlands!)
http://www.kijkwijzer.nl/about-kijkwijzer Here more about it.
The age ratings are: AL / 6 / 9 / 12 / 16
Background information (in English) about how ratings are decided: http://www.kijkwijzer.nl/classification/page146.html

Ya, Wikipedia doesn't have it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_content_rating_systems#Portugal
And my limited Google searching came up empty. Is it an official rating?
