How Pakistani post codes work
Pakistan Post gives every delivery post office a five-digit code. The first digit places it in a part of the country, so offices in the same region have neighbouring codes. In this directory the first digit splits like this:
| Codes | Offices by province |
|---|---|
| 1xxxx | Azad Kashmir (140), Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (73) and Gilgit-Baltistan (54) |
| 2xxxx | Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (426) and Punjab (1) |
| 3xxxx | Punjab (245) |
| 4xxxx | Punjab (574) and Islamabad (46) |
| 5xxxx | Punjab (383) |
| 6xxxx | Sindh (144) and Punjab (107) |
| 7xxxx | Sindh (212) |
| 8xxxx | Balochistan (127) |
| 9xxxx | Balochistan (49) |
Every office's accounts are kept by a General Post Office (GPO), or in two places a Head Post Office (HPO). This site groups offices into those 75 GPO areas, which is how Pakistan Post's own directory is arranged. Village branch offices are attached to a delivery office and use a separate branch office code, shown on each office's page.

Questions
What is the postal code of Pakistan?
Pakistan has no single national postal code. Each delivery post office has its own five-digit code: Islamabad GPO is 44000, Lahore GPO is 54000 and Karachi GPO is 74200. Search above for the office that delivers to your address.
Is a Pakistani post code the same as a ZIP code?
Yes. When a foreign website or form asks for a ZIP code or postal code, enter the five-digit Pakistan Post code of the office that delivers your mail.
Which code do I use if my village only has a branch post office?
Use the branch office code of the delivery office your branch office is attached to. Pakistan Post's directory lists one for every delivery office, and in 2,419 of 2,422 cases it is the delivery office's code plus one: Abazai is 24550, and the branch offices attached to it use 24551.
How do I find the post office nearest to me?
Use "Find post offices near me" above. It lists the ten closest of the 975 offices that have map coordinates, with the distance and a directions link.
