Ireland's Postal Code Format

Ireland uses an “Eircode” system, which is a seven-character alphanumeric format like A99 AAAA, featuring an alternating letter-digit-digit pattern followed by a space and four letters. This system is alphanumeric, unlike the purely numeric US ZIP codes. Ireland has 139 postal codes covering 3,380 regions and 51,780 towns.
  • Postal Code Format: A99 AAAA

    • Seven-character alphanumeric format (letter–digit–digit, space, four letters)
    • Two-part structure: Routing Key (first 3 characters) + Unique Identifier (last 4)
    • Extremely granular—unique down to individual addresses
    • 139 postal codes covering 3,380 regions and 51,780 towns

    Regional Examples:

    • D02 X285 - Dublin (Leinster)
    • T12 A2YT - Cork (Munster)
    • H91 E2KT - Galway (Connacht)
    • V94 V8X4 - Limerick (Munster)
  • Structure of Postal Codes

    • Format: A99 AAAA (e.g., D02 X285) with a mandatory space.
    • Hierarchical levels: Routing Key (first 3 characters) defines the area; Unique Identifier (last 4) specifies the exact building or address.
    • Key challenges: Full dataset is proprietary and license-restricted; third-party datasets typically include only routing keys.
  • Management & Authority

    • Primary postal authority: Eircode, operated under government contract.
    • Update frequency: Codes assigned continuously for new addresses; redistribution subject to strict licensing.
  • Addressing Standards

    • Common address format: Street name + house/building number, locality, county, Eircode.
    • Administrative divisions used: Postal localities (primary, secondary, tertiary) and “post counties,” which may differ from official administrative counties.
  • Special Characteristics

    • Eircodes are precise to each building, making them one of the most detailed postal systems globally.
    • Licensing restrictions limit access to full codes; routing keys are often the only usable component for external datasets.
    • Bilingual context (English and Irish) introduces variations in locality names and address searches.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dublin does not have a single ZIP code. Ireland uses Eircodes — a unique seven‑character code for each address (format A99 AAAA). Dublin contains many Eircodes and postal districts (for example the routing key D01 covers Dublin 1). Use the Eircode Finder to get the specific code for an address.
Ireland does not use 5‑digit ZIP codes. Its postal code system is called Eircode, consisting of seven alphanumeric characters in the format A99 AAAA (for example: D02 AF30).
Ireland does not use ZIP codes. It uses Eircode, a seven-character postal code system (format A99 AAAA) that assigns a unique code to every address.
Yes. Ireland uses the Eircode system, introduced in 2015. The format is A99 AAAA and each code uniquely identifies a single address.
There is no Irish ZIP code “12345”. Ireland uses 7-character Eircodes in the format A99 AAAA, so no town is assigned the five-digit code 12345.
No. Ireland does not use US-style ZIP codes; it uses Eircodes — seven-character alphanumeric codes (format like A99 AAAA) assigned to individual addresses (introduced in 2015) rather than area-based ZIP codes.
Ireland does not use the US “ZIP code” system. It uses Eircode, a seven-character alphanumeric postal code introduced in 2015. The Eircode format is A99 AAAA and assigns a unique code to each individual address rather than to broad areas.
In Ireland the postal code is called an Eircode, which is often mistakenly referred to as a ZIP code.
Write the recipient’s name on the first line. Next line: house number and street name. Add a locality or village if applicable on the following line. Then write the town or city, and optionally the county. Put the Eircode on its own line using the format A99 AAAA. For international mail add IRELAND on the final line. Example: Jane Doe 12 Main Street Kilbride Dublin D12 ABC1 IRELAND
Ireland does not have a single ZIP code; it uses Eircode, a seven-character postal code assigned to individual addresses in the format A99 AAAA.
Ireland’s postal code system is called the Eircode; its format is A99 AAAA — a three-character routing key (one letter and two digits), a space, then a four-character alphanumeric unique identifier (e.g., A65 F4E2).
Ireland does not use a digit-only ZIP code; it uses the Eircode system. An Eircode is seven alphanumeric characters (format A99 AAAA: a 3-character routing key and a 4-character unique identifier).
Addresses in Ireland use the Eircode system rather than “ZIP codes.” An Eircode is a seven-character alphanumeric postal code (format A99 AAAA). Including the Eircode improves sorting and delivery, though it has not always been mandatory.
