6/10 and one silly mistake so ... 7/10
A dotted line to show location of the missing country would help
I got all 10. 8 of them were easy, the other two were got by a process of elimination.

Since the point was to see if YOU noticed the missing country, a dotted line would be counter productive and would just be 'name this country'.

Me too, but I tried to eliminate what I knew and hopefully in the process finding the answer.

Coming into this a bit late, but I got 10/10 too.
The only one that I had to be careful with was the Caribbean one: the map appeared so small on my screen that I had to zoom in to see the islands correctly.
I do have some sympathy for New Zealand: not only is their flag often confused with Australia's but they really are often left off of maps: notoriously, they didn't even make it onto the original Risk game map...
As an aside:
One of the questions reminded me of the old joke about those maps that show only EU countries, and how Scandinavia looks a bit, erm, "odd" without Norway...

Oh .. and a silly mix up with Denmark, Sweden and Finland ... but who knows the arrangement up there anyway (interchangeable and no one would notice, lol) so . . .
8/10

Pretty certain I've got the answers, but I'll leave it for a while to let others have a go...
Continuing on from New Zealand's problem with some maps, see how long it takes you to spot what's wrong with this map that appeared in Gardens Illustrated:
[BTW, I know Shetland and the Channel Islands are missing, but I'm giving GI a "bye" on those as both would appear "off the page", as it were... ]
