Troubleshooting — common postal code mistakes
- Using only three digits — Nigerian postal codes are six digits. "112" alone is just the LGA prefix; use the full code, e.g. 112101.
- Confusing Ijebu Ode and Ijebu North — Both share the 120 prefix. Ijebu Ode starts at 120101; Ijebu North town codes start at 120105.
- Mixing up Sango Ota and Ota — Sango Ota's range (112211–112272) is distinct from general Ota/Ado-Odo codes (112101–112107). Confirm the specific district.
- Obafemi Owode vs Abeokuta North — Both use the 110 prefix. Check the full six-digit code carefully before submitting any form.
- Outdated codes — NIPOST occasionally updates its database. If you're unsure, always verify on the NIPOST official site.
