What you want to do is called "geo-coding".

As you don't give any details, it is difficult to point you to the right place. But for example Nominatim is the standard geo-coder used on openstreetmap.org.

I did not understand the beginning of the sentence that says "as you did not provide details ...."

we inform you that we provide street number, state and country

Are you building a website where the user makes requests to have this information ? Is it a app for a smartphone ? Is it a fixed list ? Do you have 10 coordinates to match to addresses, or thousands of request / hour ?

Depending on those needs, you have to set up your own service, look for a paying service or use the services provided by OpenStreetMap (if the numbers are small).
