Answer 2

That's two questions.

The ZIP code of England (Arkansas) is 72046.

ZIP stands for Zone Improvement Plan and was a trademark of the US Postal Service; they are a specific type of postcode used in the US. Postcodes were actually invented by the German post office during the Second World War, the UK started using them in 1959 and the US didn't start until the 1960's.

Ignoring your use of a colloquial US term for a moment, the UK does not have one postcode. You may not be aware that the US Postal Service does not control the mail system for the entire world and the Royal Mail (the UK postal service) has to deliver letters that don't come from the US. The system has been created to allow efficient delivery of the majority of mail and not to make life easier for US citizens.

If you want to find a specific Royal Mail postcode it can be found here:

Answer 3

There isn't one for the whole country. In the UK, zip codes (Post Codes) refer to a single street. To find out the postcode for an address go to www.royalmail.co.uk and click 'Find a Post Code'

Answer 4

We don't have Zip codes. We have post codes and in London there are literally thousands. A postcode will pinpoint an address down to a small area and in some cases down to an individual building.

Answer 5

Our Postcode system is different to the Zip Code system but serves the same purpose.


For example the postcode for 10 Downing Street, the Prime Minister's official residence is: SW1A 2AA. The SW refers to South West London (others include NE for Newcastle, M for Manchester, etc) and the rest is a code for exactly where within the town the address is.

Answer 6

U.k. doesn't have Zip Codes we have Post Codes.

Places like America have Zip Codes.

So if you are filling out a form and it asks for Zip Code, sometimes it Will let you enter the post code, but some forms tell you it is wrong code.

Good luck!

Answer 7

Nations do not have ZIP codes. UK normally works, and on letters so does England or Great Britain for that matter.

Answer 8

We dont have zip codes, we have post codes. Strangely enough, England is big enough for there to be a post code for every area and not one for the country as a whole.

Answer 9

I don't understand the question. We don't have zip codes here, we have postal codes and every street has several. If you mean what's the number to dial to get into Britain, it's 44, then the area code but I believe you miss the first nought off ... e.g. ... 0191 would become 44 191 then the number you're dialing.

Answer 10
