Bracket symbols are characters used to group, separate, or highlight parts of text or mathematical expressions. These include common symbols like parentheses, square brackets, curly braces, and angle brackets, as well as more specialized types. Bracket symbols can be found in several Unicode blocks, which may make them difficult to locate. On this page, all bracket symbols are organized into clear categories such as basic, composite, and vertical, making it easy for you to browse and find the characters you need.
There are over 100 bracket symbols included in Unicode, covering a wide range of shapes, styles, and language-specific forms, as well as specialized and technical brackets.
New bracket symbols are rarely added to Unicode. They are introduced only when there is a clear need or an official request, so new brackets do not appear often in Unicode updates.
To copy and use a Unicode bracket symbol, simply select the symbol you want, copy it, and paste it into your document, message, website, or application.
