Watch the leading zero

Some Guatemala postal codes begin with a zero, such as 01001. Spreadsheets and some web forms silently drop it, turning 01001 into 1001 — which is either a different place or not a valid code at all. Format the column as text before pasting codes into a spreadsheet.

How an address is written in Guatemala

This is the order Guatemala's postal service expects. Square brackets mark what you replace.

[Street address]
[Postal code (09001)]- [City]
GUATEMALA

A postal code is optional in Guatemala addresses — mail is deliverable without one, though including it speeds up sorting.
