PhilPost recommends the use of postal codes in the country and correct addressing. [3] However, most residents do not use, let alone know how to use ZIP codes, and thus the codes are usually omitted. According to PhilPost, the proper use of ZIP codes assists in letter sorting and reduces letter misrouting. [3]
A ZIP code is composed of a four-digit number representing a locality. Usually, more than one code is issued for areas within Metro Manila, and a single code for each municipality and each city in provinces, with exceptions such as: [1] Davao City with eleven ZIP codes (8000, 8016 to 8026); Antipolo with six ZIP codes (1870 to 1875);
The Philippine postal system has a history spanning over 250 years. In 1767, the first post office in the Philippines was established in the city of Manila, which was later organized under a new postal district of Spain. [4] At first, the postal office served mainly to courier government and church documents.
