Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia uses two postcode systems for:


 Home delivery as described in the first position.
 P.O. Box delivery as described in the second position.

Postcode Postcode position

5 digits to the right of the locality name in both systems

The 4 digit number following the postcode and separated from it with a dash is not part
of the postcode but provides additional building information

Address format Address structure for home delivery:
- line 1: name of addressee or organization name.
- line 2: building number followed by street name and district name.
- line 3: additional information: unit number or office number or letter box
number (optional line).
- line 4: city name followed by the postcode and extension number.
The building number and street name will be separated from the district name by a
comma. The postcode must be separated from the extension number by a dash.

Building number, postcode and the additional number used in the address for home
delivery provides geographic coordinates that uniquely identify each delivery point.
Thanks to this, GIS (Geographic Information System) technology can be used for
efficient mail processing.

Note: The additional number is not part of the postcode

Address structure for PO Box delivery:


- line 1: name of addressee or organization name.
- line 2: P.O. Box Number.
- line 3: name of city followed by the postcode.

The postcode appears to the left of the name of the locality when the address is written
in Arabic.
