Postal / Zip Code postal code list in Vietnam

A postal code (zip code) is a code system defined by a global postal association, consisting of 5 or 6 digits that helps locate the area when delivering mail / postal items to recipients.

In Vietnam, the postal code previously had 6 digits, in which the first two digits identified the name of the province or city under the central government; the next two digits determine the district code, district, town and city under the province; The next number determines the ward, commune, town and the last number determines the specific village, hamlet or street.

Currently, when registering an account on online service Web sites, it is often required to enter Postcode / Zip code information. A series of courier services and online sales shops around the world have updated and use Vietnam's new Zip / Postal Code with 5 numbers instead of 6 numbers as before.

3. Digits 1, 2, 3, 4 Identify the military code, district and equivalent administrative units.
4. All 5 digits: Identify the code-attached object.
