A
postal code (known in various countries as a post code ,
postcode , or ZIP code ) is a series of and/or digits
appended to a postal address for the purpose of sorting
mail.
There was a plan to introduce postal codes in Jamaica. On
February 12, 2007 it was announced: "POST CODE PROJECT
SUSPENDED INDEFINITELY"
The codes were planned to be alphanumeric, in the format:
JMAPPNN, where
-
JM is the
ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code
-
A is a
letter for one of four zones
-
PP are two
letters for a parish.
-
