Postal codes are numerical codes used to identify specific geographical areas within a country. These codes help in sorting and delivering mail by indicating precise locations.

Postal codes are important for efficient mail distribution, helping postal services and couriers deliver items quickly and accurately.

This guide provides a comprehensive overview of Abuja's postal code system, including its structure and a breakdown by local government areas (LGAs).

Abuja's postal codes consist of six digits. The first digit signifies the designated region (Abuja in this case), and the remaining digits progressively narrow down the location, reaching specific districts and sometimes even streets. For instance, the code "900221" indicates the Three Arms Zone district.
