$(document).ready(function() {
    $('#postcodeForm').formValidation({
        fields: {
            postcode: {
                validators: {
                    regexp: {
                        regexp: /^\d{5}$/,
                        message: 'The US zipcode must contain 5 digits'
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    });
});

$(document).ready(function() {

        // Revalidate the zipcode when changing the country
        .on('change', '[name="countrySelectBox"]', function(e) {
            $('#zipCodeForm').formValidation('revalidateField', 'postalCode');
        });
});
</script>

Using dynamic country option with different value

In the example above, the country option is set to the name of a country select box (countrySelectBox). It requires that value of country select box must be the country code as following:

<select class="form-control" name="countrySelectBox">
    <option value="US">United States</option>
    <option value="AT">Austria</option>
    <option value="BG">Bulgaria</option>
    <option value="BR">Brazil</option>
    <option value="CA">Canada</option>
    <option value="CZ">Czech Republic</option>
    ...
</select>

In the case that the value attribute of option can't exactly be the country code, instead, be a country name for example:

<select class="form-control" name="countrySelectBox">
    <option value="United States">United States</option>
    <option value="Austria">Austria</option>
    <option value="Bulgaria">Bulgaria</option>
    <option value="Brazil">Brazil</option>
    <option value="Canada">Canada</option>
    <option value="Czech Republic">Czech Republic</option>
    ...
</select>

Then we need to set the country option as a callback function returning a country code based on the selected name:

$('#zipCodeForm').formValidation({
    framework: 'bootstrap',
    icon: {
        ...
    },
    fields: {
        postalCode: {
            validators: {
                zipCode: {
                    country: function(value, validator, $field) {
                        // Map the country names to the code
                        var map = {
                            'United States': 'US',
                            'Austria': 'AT',
                            'Bulgaria': 'BG',
                            'Brazil': 'BR',
                            'Canada': 'CA',
                            'Czech Republic': 'CZ',
                            'Denmark': 'DK',
                            'French': 'FR',
                            'Germany': 'DE',
                            'India': 'IN',
                            'Italy': 'IT',
                            'Morocco': 'MA',
                            'Netherlands': 'NL',
                            'Poland': 'PL',
                            'Portugal': 'PT',
                            'Romania': 'RO',
                            'Russia': 'RU',
                            'Singapore': 'SG',
                            'Slovakia': 'SK',
                            'Spain': 'ES',
                            'Sweden': 'SE',
                            'Switzerland': 'CH',
                            'United Kingdom': 'GB'
                        };

                        // Get the selected country
                        var country = $('#zipCodeForm').find('[name="countrySelectBox"]').val();

                        // Return the country code based on selected name
                        return (country == '') ? '' : (map[country] || '');
                    },
                    message: 'The value is not valid %s postal code'
                }
            }
        }
    }
});
This case happens when you can't control the value of country select box which might be generated by a back-end side or third party.
