Welcome to Nigeria Zip Code, your complete and reliable guide to postal and zip codes across the whole of Nigeria. Our goal is simple: to make it easy for anyone to find the correct postal code for any location in the country, from the largest cities to the smallest local government areas.
What We Do
Nigeria is made up of 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, and each one is divided into local government areas, towns and districts, every one of which has its own six digit postal code managed by the Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST). Keeping track of all these codes can be difficult, which is why we have brought them together in one place, organised clearly by state and by zone.
For every state, we provide the full list of postal codes for each local government area and major town, along with a detailed profile of the state itself. These profiles cover the capital, the current government, the economy, infrastructure, education, culture, tourism and climate, giving you both the codes you came for and a richer understanding of the place.
Why Postal Codes Matter
Postal codes play an important role in everyday life. They help ensure that mail, parcels and deliveries reach the right destination, and they are increasingly required by online forms, banks, delivery services and government platforms. Using the correct code for your specific area helps avoid delays and errors, which is why we list codes right down to the local government and town level rather than offering a single general number for each state.
Our Commitment to Accuracy
We work hard to keep our information accurate and up to date, drawing on official postal code data and reviewing our listings regularly. Postal codes and administrative details can change over time, and we welcome corrections and suggestions from our readers. If you spot anything that looks out of date, please get in touch through our contact page and we will review it.
Thank you for using Nigeria Zip Code. We hope our directory makes finding the right postal code quick, simple and reliable, wherever in Nigeria you need it.
