Map-of-Nigeria

Are you confused about what Nigeria’s ZIP Code is. Here is all the official information you need
First thing you need to realize is this- ZIP codes apply to only the United States.
What this means is that other countries use Postal Codes including Nigeria.
However, the USPS(United States Postal Services) has codes for other countries which is equivalent to the ZIP Codes Used in Nigeria. Nigeria’s Zip Code is 00176-0000
What to Do If You are Filling a Form that is Requesting for a ZIP Code?
Though the fact is that Nigeria only has Postal Codes, some forms still request for ZIP Codes.This is what you should do
Simply type in 110001 or 23401. Either of them would work.

A Mistake You Should Never Make
Never use 234 as the ZIP Code. That is Nigeria’s International dialling Code.
