International Postal Codes — 100+ Countries
This site maintains a local reference of postal-code formats and selected place examples for 119 country pages. The entries are not an exhaustive postal-code register, complete address database, or live deliverability check. Coverage and detail vary by country.
Postal-code formats and address layouts
Postal-code systems and address order vary by country. The Universal Postal Union's S42 standard provides country-specific address templates rather than one universal format. A pattern or example can help explain the shape of a code, but it cannot confirm that the code matches a street address or that a shipment can be delivered.
How to use this reference
Search the listed country, city, region, or example code, then confirm the complete address and current requirements with the destination postal operator. A country missing from this directory is not evidence that it does not use postal codes. For US ZIP place-name and coordinate results, use the USA ZIP Code Lookup; verify official mailing details with USPS.
