Postal codes in Andorra
Encyclopedia
Until 2004, Andorra
had no post codes, but in that year, in cooperation with the postal administrations of France and Spain, these were finally introduced. (Postal services in Andorra are provided by both countries.) Each of the seven parish
in the principality has been allocated its own post code, (or codi postal in Catalan
).
PO Box addresses require different post codes, ending in the digit '1', so, for example, a letter sent to a PO Box address in Andorra la Vella would require the post code AD501.
