Spain, Ireland and Norway recognise the state of Palestine, the three countries said on Wednesday.
"Today, Ireland, Norway and Spain are announcing that we recognise the state of Palestine," Irish Prime Minister Simon Harris said at a news conference.
Harris added that other countries are expected to join the trio in the coming weeks.
"Each of us will now undertake whatever national steps are necessary to give effect to that decision."
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said that his country's cabinet would recognise an independent Palestinian state on Tuesday.
