Why test postal codes matter
Postal code fields break more checkouts than almost any other input. Canadian codes contain letters and a space, UK postcodes have variable length, Dutch codes mix digits and letters, and US ZIP+4 codes include a hyphen. A form that only accepts five digits silently loses international customers. Generating a list for each country lets you check validation rules, input masks and database column sizes in minutes.
How the codes follow the rules
- US: the first three digits come from the range assigned to the state, so a Florida ZIP starts with 32–34.
- Canada: only the letters allowed by Canada Post are used; D, F, I, O, Q and U never appear.
- UK: codes use real postcode areas such as SW, M, LS and EH with a valid inward code.
- France and Spain: the first two digits are a real department or province number.
Important
These codes are meant for development and QA. Payment providers verify the billing postal code against the bank's records, so a random code cannot be used to make real purchases. Use your provider's documented test values when testing address verification.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a billing postal code?
It is the ZIP or postal code of the address registered with your card issuer. Many checkouts ask only for this code and compare it with the bank's records (address verification).
Will a generated postal code work for a real payment?
No. A real payment only succeeds with the postal code your bank has on file. These codes are for testing form validation and test-mode payments.
Are the codes valid?
They follow each country's official format and value ranges – US ZIP prefixes per state, Canadian letter rules, UK outward codes, French departments, Spanish provinces – but a specific code may not be in use.
Which countries are supported?
United States (ZIP and ZIP+4), Canada, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, the Netherlands, Australia, Japan and India.
