How to add "Allowed Countries" field in custom form
To bring in the allowed countries field in your custom module config:
add the following to your module's system.xml
<sallowspecific translate="label">
<label>Ship to Applicable Countries</label>
<frontend_type>select</frontend_type>
<sort_order>90</sort_order>
<frontend_class>shipping-applicable-country</frontend_class>
<source_model>adminhtml/system_config_source_shipping_allspecificcountries</source_model>
<show_in_default>1</show_in_default>
<show_in_website>1</show_in_website>
<show_in_store>0</show_in_store>
</sallowspecific>
<specificcountry translate="label">
<label>Ship to Specific Countries</label>
<frontend_type>multiselect</frontend_type>
<sort_order>91</sort_order>
<source_model>adminhtml/system_config_source_country</source_model>
<show_in_default>1</show_in_default>
<show_in_website>1</show_in_website>
<show_in_store>0</show_in_store>
<can_be_empty>1</can_be_empty>
</specificcountry>
under <fields>
tag in your custom section.
To add it in the admin form:
in app/code/local/Yourmodulename/Block/Adminhtml/Yourmodulename/Edit/Tab/Form.php
$countryList = Mage::getModel('directory/country')->getResourceCollection()->loadByStore()->toOptionArray(true);
$fieldset->addField('allowed_countries', 'multiselect', array( /* "allowed_countries" is the column name in your custom table to store these values */
'name' => 'countries[]',
'label' => Mage::helper('yourmodulename')->__('Allowed Countries'),
'title' => Mage::helper('yourmodulename')->__('Allowed Countries'),
'required' => true, /* only if it is required */
'values' => $countryList,
));
note:
- You have to write logic to save the multiselect values in database in saveAction()
to display this in admin grid:

I found the solution.
To add a country multi select dropdown in your form you need to add below code in your Block/Adminhtml/ModuleName/Edit/Tab/Form.php
file.
$countryList = Mage::getModel('directory/country')->getResourceCollection()->loadByStore()->toOptionArray(true);
$fieldset->addField('countries', 'multiselect', array(
'name' => 'countries[]',
'label' => Mage::helper('zones')->__('Countries'),
'title' => Mage::helper('zones')->__('Countries'),
'required' => true,
'values' => $countryList,
));
$fieldset->addField('country', 'select', array(
'name' => 'country',
'label' => 'Country',
'values' => Mage::getModel('adminhtml/system_config_source_country')->toOptionArray(),
));
