About Imo Postal Codes

Imo State has 27 LGAs - one of the highest counts in the South East - and that means a lot of distinct postal codes spread across a relatively small land area. Owerri, the state capital, is growing fast, and the postal system has to keep up.

Postal codes in Imo range from 460001 to 474999. The state is in NIPOST zone 4. Owerri city codes start from 460xxx, while Orlu, Okigwe, and Oguta each have their own specific ranges.

The density of LGAs means that postal codes can change within short distances. Two streets apart in Owerri might have different codes. And if you are in places like Mbaise, Nkwerre, or Ideato, the codes are nothing like what you would use in the capital.

Skip the confusion. The GPS tool at the top of this page detects your location and returns the exact postal code for where you are - anywhere in Imo State.
