What is Nigeria’s ZIP code? Clear the Confusion
Now!
If you’ve been confused for some time about
what the correct Nigeria ZIP code is, then this
post is for you, as it gives some clarification.
For your information, ZIP (Zone Improvement
Plan) codes apply ONLY to the United States . The
US does not regard postal codes from other
countries as “ZIP” codes.
In all other countries, postal codes are used.
However, ZIP codes in the US are used for the
same purposes for which other countries use
postal codes — for mailing purposes.
So, ZIP codes are to the US while postal codes
are to other countries — including Nigeria.
However, note that the USPS (United States
Postal Service) has codes for overseas countries,
which are used when handling deliveries. These
codes are equivalent to the ZIP codes used within
the US. The code for Nigeria is 00176-0000.
Now, how do you fill forms requesting for ZIP
code?
If you’re filling a form online, and you’re required
to key in your ZIP code, simply put 110001 or
23401. Some sites may reject both codes. In such
case, try 00176. At least one of these codes
should work.
Don’t make this mistake, please…
Never enter 234 as the ZIP code for Nigeria. This
is Nigeria’s international phone dialling code.
(Whenever you’re required to enter a ZIP code,
simply use 110001, 23401, or 00176.)

What a pile of crap this early morning. Stop the misinformation. Nigeria have a postcode which is useful for your postal delivery (managed by NIPOST) . Every location in Nigeria has its unique postcode, the area I am in PH has postal code : 560102 Go to http://www.nigeriapostcodes.com/ and confirm the specific code for your location 2 Likes |

ITbomb: tabisegroup: Both of you are right. Just a little misunderstanding/misplacement between both of you. ITbomb is right in the sence that postal code is used for same purpose just like zipcode. The only difference is that zipcode is only used in the USA. tabisegroup is also saying that US doesn't use the postal codes used by other countries for mailing to other countries, rather they use the USPS (United States Postal Service) which has codes for overseas countries, which are used when handling deliveries. To me the Op is making sence 1 Like |

America likes to be different. When they gained independence from Britain, they changed their way of life and English entirely. That's why we have American English and British English. Zip code is what America uses while post/postal code is used by every other country. When I fill online forms requesting for zip code, I input my Nigerian post code since I'm filling a Nigerian address and not an American address. Poster is right on one hand and ITbomb as well. You guys should disagree to agree jor! |
