Postal code formats by country
Advertisement
The postal code format for every country that uses one, with a real example
of each. # means a digit and @ means a letter, so
@@# #@@ is two letters, a digit, a space, a digit and two letters.
The Required column is about the address, not the website: it says whether the country's own postal service expects a code in a complete address. Plenty of forms demand one where the country does not.
