United Arab Emirates
No postal codes are used in the UAE, Dubai, Abu Dhabi or any other Emirate.
United Arab Emirates does not operate a national postal code system. Delivery is by P.O. Box rather than to street addresses, and there is no postcode to look up.
Some reference datasets still list a numeric format for United Arab Emirates. That entry is not supported by Google's address metadata or by current postal practice, so no code data is published here.
What to enter when a form demands a postcode
Leave the field blank, or enter 00000 if digits are forced. Always include the P.O. Box number in the address itself.
