Burkina Faso Postal Codes

Burkina Faso uses a postal code system that consists of five digits, introduced to improve mail sorting and delivery efficiency. The first two digits generally correspond to the administrative region or province, while the remaining digits specify towns, cities, or neighborhoods within that region. The capital, Ouagadougou, for example, has postal codes such as 01 for the central area, with other parts of the city having different codes. The system helps ensure that mail reaches its destination more efficiently, though in rural areas, postal codes may not be as widely used or standardized.
