How to discover the Postal Code of your Area

A postal code (known in various countries as a post code , postcode , or ZIP code ) is a series of letters and/or digits appended to a postal address for the purpose of sorting mail. Once postal codes were introduced, other applications became possible. In February 2005, 117 of the 190 member countries of the Universal Postal Union had postal code systems. Countries that do not have national systems include Ireland and Ghana. Although postal codes are usually assigned to geographical areas, special codes are sometimes assigned to individual addresses or to institutions that receive large volumes of mail, such as government agencies and large commercial companies. Before now, it used to be a bit hard for people to know the Postal Code of their area as people no longer use The Nigerian Postal service (NIPOST) as before. But to alleviate the problem, a website has now been made available to solve that problem. All you need to do is to click on the link below www.nigeriapostcodescom/views/ and follow the instructions therein. >>First select STATE from the list of states in Nigeria >>Then select your TOWN >>After that select your AREA >>Then Finally select your STREETNAME
