How is a German postal code structured?
Germany uses a five-digit Postleitzahl (PLZ). The digits move from a broad routing zone to a more specific delivery area, and leading zeroes are part of the code.

- Use exactly five digits. German postal codes contain no letters, spaces, or hyphens.
- Keep leading zeroes. Codes in eastern routing areas can begin with 0 and must be stored as text.
- PLZ identifies a delivery area. It does not prove that a complete street address is valid or deliverable.
