Replace "12345" with the correct PO Box number. Don't use a street address when addressing mail for the UAE that goes through the postal system.Don't use a public PO Box address unless you know that is what you want to do. Some confusion might result from the Universal Postal Union (UPU) UAE member page " Search for a postcode" link going to the EPG list of locations with Public PO Box numbers.Sharjah started to introduce a " Postal Code System" in 2015 but they are GIS building location codes rather than mail delivery codes for areas. Don't get PO Box mixed up with postcodes or zip codes. You need a PO Box number for any post office delivered mail in the UAE.If mail is addressed as " Somebody, Dubai 12345, UAE" without the text " PO Box", it will still be delivered successfully but it looks there is a postcode for Dubai rather than a PO Box. Try 00000 if you are forced to use one.Ĭonfusion arises because all UAE mail is delivered to a PO Box, e.g. There isn't anywhere in Dubai or UAE that uses a zip code or postcode for mail delivery.
