Zip codes are called zip codes in Canada. Unlike China, the Canadian postal code is basically a decoration, but it is very useful. For example, when you swipe a credit card, you sometimes use the postcode to verify your identity, and when you buy auto insurance, you use the postcode to judge the security situation in this area.

The postal code of Canada has six characters. The first character is a letter (A-Z), the second is a number (0-9), the third is a letter, the fourth is a number, the fifth is a letter and the sixth is a number. Similar to the following form: A 1B2C3. Generally speaking, there is a space between them.

The first three characters

The first three characters represent a large continuous area, which is accurately divided according to the number of people. It may be a province with a small population, such as Nunavut, or a city with a large population, such as Montreal and Toronto. The first letter: represents a geographical province or district, and the whole of Canada is divided into 18 major postal districts. The second digit: urbanpostalcode stands for a good city, 1 to 9 stands for a different place; The third letter: indicates the exact location of a city, town or other area.

The last three characters

The last three characters represent specific addresses, such as hospitals, schools, large building units, residential areas and even small towns.

First letter

The first letter represents the region, where the first letter represents the region, such as Quebec is G, Montreal is H and so on.

How to view the address and postal code?

If you know the address, you need to check the zip code, or even vice versa, you need to check the approximate address. The website of Canada Post Office provides free inquiry service for Canadian postal codes. You can query according to the province name, city name, street name, street number and other information. ?

Example of postal code: For example, Santa Claus address: (H0H 0H0 is the postal code)

Canada Post has opened a special address for Santa Claus:

Santa Claus (name)

Arctic? H0H 0H0 (address+postcode address is generally written as house number+road name+city name+province abbreviation+postcode)

Canada (country)

In French culture, Santa Claus is called Father No? L, so the address of the French version is:

p？ No? L

p？ Lenod? H0H 0H0

Canada

Most of the top three places in that city are zip codes starting with J4Y J4X, but the last three places can't be given. Every road or even every house has a different postcode, and the postcode is very important. If you can't determine the specific location, it is difficult to give the correct postcode.
