Mathematical symbol Greater Than over Equal to
About this character
The character ≧ carries the official Unicode name “Mathematical symbol Greater Than over Equal to” and the code point U+2267, which is 8807 in decimal. It belongs to the Mathematical Operators block (U+2200–U+22FF), which gathers the operators, quantifiers and relations of algebra, logic and set theory.
In memory, ≧ takes 3 bytes in UTF-8 (0xE2 0x89 0xA7) and 1 in UTF-16 (0x2267). That difference is why badly configured forms or databases garble this character: they assume one byte per character.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Unicode code for ≧?
Its code point is U+2267, which is 8807 in decimal and 021147 in octal. In HTML you can write it as ≧ or ≧.
Why does ≧ show up as a box or a question mark?
An empty box means the font has no glyph for U+2267. The character is still in the text: switching to a font that covers the block (Noto, DejaVu or Segoe UI Symbol) makes it appear.
Can I use ≧ in a filename, a URL or a password?
In a URL it must be encoded as %E2%89%A7. Modern filesystems accept it, though it is still risky when moving files between systems. For passwords, some forms reject non-ASCII characters outright.
