Watch the leading zero
Some Mexico postal codes begin with a zero, such as 01000. Spreadsheets and some web forms silently drop it, turning 01000 into 1000 — which is either a different place or not a valid code at all. Format the column as text before pasting codes into a spreadsheet.

MEXICO
A postal code is required in a complete Mexico address. The postal code should be written in capital letters. The state is also required.
Look up a specific address
For the code covering one particular street or building, Mexico's postal service publishes an official finder: www.correosdemexico.gob.mx/SSLServicios/ConsultaCP/Descarga.aspx. It is authoritative and kept current, which third-party copies often are not.
