Understanding Nepal's Postal Codes

A quick guide to sending mail and filling out online forms in Nepal.

Domestic Mail (Official)
4 4 6 0 0

Nepal Post officially uses a 5-digit system. Use this exact format for all domestic mail, courier services, and local government forms to ensure accurate sorting and fast delivery.

International Forms (Workaround)
0 4 4 6 0 0

Many foreign websites (like Amazon, AliExpress, or international payment gateways) strictly require 6 digits. Simply add a leading zero (0) to the official code. This is universally accepted and won't affect delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about postal codes in Nepal.

How many digits are in a Nepal postal code?
Nepal uses a 5-digit postal code system. The first digit broadly represents the region or province, while the remaining digits identify the specific district, area post office, or local municipality.
Why do some international websites ask for a 6-digit postal code for Nepal?
Many international e-commerce sites, checkout forms, and databases are hardcoded to require a 6-digit ZIP or postal code field. You can safely add a leading zero (0) in front of the official 5-digit Nepal postal code to satisfy these forms without causing any mail delivery issues.
Is the postal code the same for an entire district?
No. While the main District Post Office has a primary code, area post offices and rural municipalities (Palikas) within the same district often have their own unique 5-digit postal codes. Always search for your specific town or municipality to get the exact code.
Do I need to include the Ward number in the postal code?
No, the postal code does not change based on the Ward number. The code is assigned to the local post office that serves your area. Write your specific Ward or Tole name in the street address line, but use the single postal code assigned to your local post office.
