Nigeria Postal Codes/Zip Codes For All Cities

Nigeria, situated in West Africa, is a federal republic sharing borders with Benin to the west, Chad and Cameroon to the east, and Niger to the north. Its appellation, “Nigeria,” derives from the Niger River, which delineates its southern perimeter.

When purchasing items online, many websites require accurate postal codes as part of the address collection process. A valid postal code is essential for ensuring that packages are delivered to the correct location.

The Nigerian postal code is organized by the Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST). Each place has its own special code made of 6 numbers. Unlike in other countries where postal codes can have letters, in Nigeria, they only use numbers, and every code has 6 of them, no matter where it is.

According to NIPOST, Nigeria is divided into 9 regions that make up the code’s first digit. The second and third digits, combined with the first, are the dispatch district for outgoing sorting. The last three digits represent the delivery location determined by your local post office. A delivery location can be any of the following; a post office facility, a rural area, or an urban area.

To find your postcode, go ahead and make your search or click on the state and then Local Government Area (LGA) to reveal all the postal codes within that LGA; then browse through the tables to find out the postal or zip code of your exact district, ward, or location.
