Zip/Postal codes are used to identify specific locations. They can be used to identify a location’s region, community, local government area, etc. Postal code and Zip code means the same thing and is used for the same functions. Although in Nigeria, Postal code is most commonly used.
When you need to mail something or get something from someone, postal codes can be quite helpful. Most banks, especially those that are international, and other organizations utilize zip numbers or postal codes to verify your location for a variety of reasons.

The postal codes for Nigeria are numerical and each one has six digits. The first number of the country’s postal code is determined by the nine unique areas that make up Nigeria, according to the Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST). Adding the first digit to the sum of the second and third digits yields the dispatch district for outbound sorting. The destination of the package is indicated by the last three digits. A metropolitan region, a rural area, or a post office facility is a few examples of the kinds of locales that could be used for deliveries.
