When sending any shipment by Russian post, it is required to indicate the recipient's index. And this often causes problems: we do not always remember our own zip code, what to say about the zip codes of friends or relatives. How to find the street code and house number?
Instructions
Step 1
Since the information about the indices is not secret, it is quite easy to do this. It is enough to type in any search engine the query "postal codes of Russia", "postal codes of Moscow" (or any other city) - and in the very first lines you will see several links to the postcode databases at once. You can use any of them: the information presented in them is similar.
Step 2
Having selected the index base of the city you are interested in, select a letter or number from the list with which the name of the street you are interested in begins with. On the page that opens, select the street you need (they are listed in alphabetical order). The postal code will be written next to its name.
Step 3
Not always all addresses on the same street have the same postcode. After all, the index is essentially the number of the post office that serves a given house, and it often happens that, for example, even and odd houses on the same small street may be located in the service areas of different offices. And, for example, Leninsky Prospekt in Moscow (the length of which is almost 13 kilometers) is served by 19 post offices, Nevsky Prospekt in St. Petersburg - 9. In such cases, houses belonging to a particular post office are indicated in the database of postal codes under the street name. …
Step 4
The format for presenting data on addresses with this index is as follows: first, the even or odd parity is indicated, then the range of numbers. For example, "Nevsky Prospect, N (1-25) - 191186". This means that all odd-numbered houses from 1 to 25 inclusive have the postal code 191186.
