Hail is found anywhere thunderstorms occur, especially severe storms. This would be most places in the mid-latitudes, especially continental locations. The tropics have lots of thunderstorms but not as many generate hail.
Some of the most frequent hail occurs in mountainous areas due to the orographic lift that allows updrafts to become stronger. It is very common and hail can be quite large in northern India and parts of China. Hailstorms can also occur frequently across much of Europe.
