List of Kwara State postal codes Nigeria : All Branches
Kwara State has postal delivery districts serving Ilorin, Offa, Jebba, Lafiagi, Patigi and other towns. Since different communities have different delivery areas, there is no single six-digit postal code that applies to every address in the state.
This guide introduces selected Kwara State postal codes and explains how to identify the correct code when completing delivery forms, online registrations and official address documents.

Ilorin postal codes
Ilorin is the capital of Kwara State and has several postal delivery districts. The general post-office code is 240001, while urban neighbourhoods use more specific codes. A resident should therefore check the code for the actual delivery area instead of automatically using the GPO number.
Postal codes for Offa and Omu-Aran
Offa and Omu-Aran are important towns in Kwara State. Their listed codes are 250101 and 251101 respectively. These entries are useful starting points for addresses in the corresponding delivery areas.
Lafiagi, Patigi and Kaiama
The northern part of Kwara State also has separate postal delivery locations. Lafiagi, Patigi and Kaiama should not be assigned Ilorin’s postal code simply because they are within the same state. Use the code associated with the recipient’s town.
How to use a Kwara postal code
- Identify the exact town and delivery district.
- Enter the corresponding six-digit postal code.
- Include the street, community and local government area.
- Confirm uncertain codes before sending important documents.
Traditional postal codes and digital postcodes
The codes in this guide belong to Nigeria’s traditional six-digit postal-code system. A digital postcode is a separate location identifier. If a website requests a six-digit postal code, use the traditional format rather than substituting a digital postcode.
Checking the right delivery code
Postal-code ranges and neighbourhood allocations can differ within a town. For a street-level address or a smaller community not listed here, confirm the correct code with the relevant postal office or official postcode service. A complete address should always accompany the code.
