## SQL RIGHT JOIN Keyword

The RIGHT JOIN keyword returns all rows from the right table (table2), with the matching rows in the left table (table1). The result is NULL in the left side when there is no match.

### SQL RIGHT JOIN Syntax

SELECT column_name(s)
FROM table1
RIGHT JOIN table2
ON table1.column_name=table2.column_name;

or:

SELECT column_name(s)
FROM table1
RIGHT OUTER JOIN table2
ON table1.column_name=table2.column_name;

PS! In some databases RIGHT JOIN is called RIGHT OUTER JOIN.

## Demo Database

In this tutorial we will use the well-known Northwind sample database.

Below is a selection from the "Orders" table:

OrderID | CustomerID | EmployeeID | OrderDate | ShipperID
--- | --- | --- | --- | ---
10308 | 2 | 7 | 1996-09-18 | 3
10309 | 37 | 3 | 1996-09-19 | 1
10310 | 77 | 8 | 1996-09-20 | 2

And a selection from the "Employees" table:

EmployeeID | LastName | FirstName | BirthDate | Photo | Notes
--- | --- | --- | --- | --- | ---
1 | Davolio | Nancy | 12/8/1968 | EmpID1.pic | Education includes a BA in psychology.....
2 | Fuller | Andrew | 2/19/1952 | EmpID2.pic | Andrew received his BTS commercial and....
3 | Leverling | Janet | 8/30/1963 | EmpID3.pic | Janet has a BS degree in chemistry....

## SQL RIGHT JOIN Example

The following SQL statement will return all employees, and any orders they have placed:

## Example

SELECT Orders.OrderID, Employees.FirstName
FROM Orders
RIGHT JOIN Employees
ON Orders.EmployeeID=Employees.EmployeeID
ORDER BY Orders.OrderID;
Try it yourself »

Note: The RIGHT JOIN keyword returns all the rows from the right table (Employees), even if there are no matches in the left table (Orders).
