Nigeria Postal codes and Zip Codes – 2022 Official List

Welcome to Nigeria Postal Service – Postcode Lookup System.

The Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST) has a chronological arrangement of the Nigeria postal codes of various cities and regions in the country.

Unlike some countries where postal/zip codes usually carry some alphabet, Nigeria Postal codes are represented using only 6 digits, irrespective of the region.

The NIPOST divides the country into 9 regions, and those regions determine the first digit of the 6-digit code; while the last 3 digits at the end of the code is determined by your local post office.

Unlike what most people think, Nigeria zip code is well organized by the Nigerian Postal Service, the country is divided into nine regions, and each region code makes up the first digit.
