New postcode in Osun

Buildings now also get their own 11-character digital postcode from NIPOST. Most forms still ask for the 6-digit code on this page. There is no conversion between the two: your building's new code comes only from NIPOST's lookup.

Towns and areas (LGA not confirmed)

The original listings grouped these under a town or area name instead of an LGA. We keep that grouping and don't assign an LGA.

How postal codes work in Osun

Nigeria's 6-digit postal codes cover an area, not a building. The codes we list for Osun run from 220101 to 234103, and all start with 2. The same code is often shared by several neighbouring streets, and one LGA can have many codes.

NIPOST's new 11-character postcodes for Osun start with the prefix OS (NIPOST's state code table). The rest of the code identifies the LGA, district, area and building, so each building has its own. There is no conversion from the 6-digit codes.

Post offices in Osun

NIPOST doesn't publish a list of post offices. Its own Post Office Finder searches by area name. More about post offices

Questions from readers

Readers' questions about this page, answered from our own postcode data. We never look up or give new 11-character building codes: use postcode.gov.ng/find for those.

    The old 6-digit postcode for Ikire in Irewole LGA, Osun State, is 221104. It covers the wider Ikire postal area rather than a single street or building. You can see all Irewole codes on the Irewole LGA page. For a building-level postcode, use the NIPOST finder at https://postcode.gov.ng/find.
