About Lagos Postal Codes
Lagos is where most Nigerians first encounter the postal code question. You are filling an online form, checking out on an ecommerce site, or registering for something - and it asks for a zip code. And you realise you do not know yours.
Lagos postal codes range from 100001 to 112005. The state is the sole occupant of NIPOST zone 1, which tells you something about the volume of postal activity here. With 20 LGAs packed into what is geographically one of the smallest states, codes change rapidly from one area to the next.
Lagos Island starts at 100001. Victoria Island has codes in the 101xxx range. Lekki Phase 1 uses 105xxx. Ikeja - the official state capital - has codes around 100271 to 100283. Surulere is in the 101283 range. And these are just the highlights.
Ikorodu, Badagry, Epe, and Alimosho all have their own distinct postal code ranges. Two neighbouring streets in Lagos can have different codes, especially in dense areas like Mushin, Oshodi, or Ajegunle.
Do not bother trying to memorise these. Just use the GPS tool above. Tap the button, allow location access, and your exact Lagos postal code appears in seconds. It works whether you are in Lekki or Badagry.
