Typing stubs for emoji
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No, unless you are locked to emoji versions older than 2.2.0. The package itself recommends uninstalling if you use emoji 2.2.0 or newer, and it has not been maintained since 2023-03-27. For modern emoji versions, use the native type stubs included in emoji itself.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Low install friction with no runtime dependencies.
- However, the package has not been updated since 2023-03-27; the description notes that emoji has included its own type stubs since version 2.2.0, making types-emoji redundant for recent versions.

What it is and what it does
types-emoji is a PEP 561 type stub package that provides type information for the emoji package. It allows static type checkers like mypy, pyright, pytype, and PyCharm to understand and validate code that uses emoji, catching type errors at development time.
However, this package is now largely superseded: the description notes that emoji has included type annotations or type stubs since version 2.2.0, making types-emoji redundant for users on that version or later. The package has not been updated since 2023-03-27, and its own description recommends uninstalling it if you use emoji 2.2.0 or newer.
Use it for
- Type-checking code that depends on emoji versions older than 2.2.0 without native stubs
- Enabling static type validation in projects locked to pre-2.2.0 emoji versions
- Adding type safety to emoji usage in codebases that require strict static analysis
