I think instead of going through the lengthy registration process, one should download it from this github repo. At the time of this writing, this repo was very recent.

You will need a (free) license key. You can use this bash 1 liner with YOUR_LICENSE_KEY

curl "https://download.maxmind.com/app/geoip_download?edition_id=GeoLite2-Country&license_key=YOUR_LICENSE_KEY&suffix=tar.gz" -o GeoLite2-Country.tar.gz \
  && tar -xzvf GeoLite2-Country.tar.gz \
  && mkdir -p /var/opt/maxmind/ \
  && mv GeoLite2-Country_*/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb /var/opt/maxmind/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb

Did you mean to include (your?) license key in that example? – ctwardy Feb 16 '21 at 22:31

It was only an (invalid) sample, answer clarified to use a variable. Thanks. – s01ipsist Feb 17 '21 at 23:39
But how can we generate a license key ? On the GeoIP2Lite wabesite, we need to login to create license key... But I'm not working for an entreprise ! – Virinas-code Jan 18 '22 at 14:36
