List of Plateau State postal codes Nigeria : All Branches

Jos postal code
Jos is the capital of Plateau State. Jos North is associated with postal code 930001, while Jos South has a separate delivery allocation. The wider Jos urban area includes multiple neighbourhood codes, so the exact district should be identified before using a code.
Bukuru and Jos South
Bukuru is within the wider Jos South area and is listed with 930101. Other parts of Jos South may use different codes. A complete address should identify the neighbourhood and street rather than relying only on the name of the local government area.
Pankshin and Shendam
Pankshin is listed with postal code 933101, while Shendam is associated with 940101. These are separate delivery locations in Plateau State and should not be confused with the postal code for Jos.
Langtang, Barkin Ladi and other towns
Langtang North, Langtang South and Barkin Ladi have their own postal allocations. Bassa, Bokkos, Kanam and Wase also have separate delivery codes. The entries in the table provide selected examples, not every street-level code in the state.
How to use a Plateau postal code
- Identify the town and neighbourhood.
- Use the code assigned to that delivery area.
- Include the street or community name.
- Check the local government area before submitting the address.
Why some areas have postal-code ranges
Several delivery districts can exist within one local government area. A range represents different codes serving different locations; it is not a set of interchangeable numbers. Select the code that matches the actual destination.
Traditional postal codes and digital postcodes
The codes shown here are traditional six-digit postal codes. A digital postcode is a different address-identification format. Follow the format requested by the relevant form or delivery service.
Confirming a specific Plateau address
If a street or settlement is not included in this selected list, confirm the exact code through the relevant postal office or official postcode service. Providing a complete address alongside the code helps avoid confusion between nearby delivery districts.
