Our location dataset for Luxembourg

Luxembourg ZIP Codes

Luxembourg uses a “Code postal” system, which is a four-digit numeric format like 9999, with no letters or separators. This is similar to US ZIP codes, which are also numeric, but US ZIP codes are five digits long compared to Luxembourg’s four. According to the GeoPostcodes world postal code database, Luxembourg has 4,476 postal codes covering 112 regions and 546 towns.

Luxembourg ZIP & Administrative boundaries

Luxembourg administrative landscape often follows inconsistent regional models and irregular public sources, making it difficult to maintain reliable boundaries. Our standardized postal and administrative boundary data resolves these gaps to ensure complete, coherent geographic coverage.

Luxembourg Administrative Divisions

GeoPostcodes provides a standardized reference for Luxembourg’s address structure, ensuring consistent, accurate, and globally aligned formatting across your systems. The dataset captures the official address elements required by the national postal operator and maps them into our unified global schema.
