基里巴斯地址格式

What is the Postcode format in Kiribati?

The format is "KI" + NNNN (N = digit, A = letter), for example KI0107. Postcodes were introduced around 2020: the ISO country code 'KI' followed by 4 digits encoding the island group and delivery post office (e.g. KI0107 = Bairiki GPO, South Tarawa). The code is written to the right of the island name, e.g. 'Sth Tarawa KI0107'. Older mail without a postcode still relies on island + village names.

How do you write an address in Kiribati?

Kiribati addresses are written from the smallest unit to the largest.
