It is one of the most common bat species in the British Isles. In Europe, the northernmost confirmed records are from southern Finland near 60°N.
The Japanese house bat or Japanese pipistrelle is a species of vesper bat. An adult has a body length of 3.6–4.8 cm (1.4–1.9 in), a tail of 2.9–4.0 cm (1.1–1.6 in), and a wing length of 3.2–3.6 cm (1.3–1.4 in). It prefers to roost under the ceiling or inside the roof of old buildings. It is found across East Asia, from China and Taiwan into the Ussuri region, the Korean Peninsula, and Japan.

It favors human habitations. A 2010 research paper from the Philippines regarding the prevalence of coronaviruses in bats tested several Java pipistrelle bats.
The forest pipistrelle is a species of vesper bat found in Australia, in the northernmost parts of Queensland and the Northern Territory.
The Mount Gargues pipistrelle is a species of vesper bat found in Kenya and believed to be widely distributed across highlands in Ethiopia. It typically lives in subtropical or tropical forests.

Pipistrellus raceyi, also known as Racey's pipistrelle, is a bat from Madagascar, in the genus Pipistrellus. Although unidentified species of Pipistrellus had been previously reported from Madagascar since the 1990s, P. raceyi was not formally named until 2006. It is apparently most closely related to the Asian species P. endoi, P. paterculus, and P. abramus, and its ancestors probably reached Madagascar from Asia. P. raceyi has been recorded at four sites, two in the eastern and two in the western lowlands. In the east, it is found in open areas and has been found roosting in a building; in the west it occurs in dry forest. Because of uncertainties about its ecology, it is listed as "Data Deficient" on the IUCN Red List.
Hanak's dwarf bat or Hanak's pipistrelle is a species of bat only found in Cyrenaica, Libya and Crete, Greece.
