How Do UAE Postal Codes & Addresses Work?

đź›’

1. Online Shopping & Forms (00000)

The UAE does not assign unique ZIP codes to streets. Whenever a website or app asks for a UAE Postal Code or ZIP Code, enter 00000 or N/A. Couriers deliver directly using your street address and mobile number.

📬

2. Physical Mail (Emirates Post P.O. Box)

For official letters, bank cards, or international post via Emirates Post, mail is routed to a rented P.O. Box number (either your employer's P.O. Box or a personal MyBox subscription).

đź“Ť

3. Makani & Onwani GPS Systems

In Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, RAK, and UAQ, every building entrance has a 10-digit Makani number for exact GPS pinpointing. Abu Dhabi uses the Onwani addressing system with street names and building numbers.

Complete Guide to UAE Postal Codes & ZIP Codes by Emirate

Whether you are ordering online from Amazon, Shein, or Noon, registering for a bank account, or receiving an international parcel via DHL, FedEx, or Emirates Post, forms frequently require a UAE Postal Code. Unlike countries in North America or Europe that assign unique 5-digit or alphanumeric codes to individual streets, the United Arab Emirates does not use a traditional street-level ZIP code system.

Instead, the universal placeholder postal code across all seven Emirates is 00000 (five zeros). For physical mail delivered through Emirates Post, residents and businesses use a dedicated P.O. Box number combined with digital geo-addressing systems like Makani and Onwani.

The Abu Dhabi Postal Code for Abu Dhabi Island, Al Reem Island, Khalifa City, Mussafah, Yas Island, and Al Ain is 00000. Abu Dhabi uses the Onwani system—look at the blue plaque mounted on your building or villa wall to find your exact building number and street name.

QUICK ANSWERS (AEO)

Frequently Asked Questions About UAE Postal Codes

Direct, concise answers to the most common questions about UAE ZIP codes, P.O. Boxes, and Makani numbers.

The standard UAE postal code for online shopping is 00000 (five zeros). Because the United Arab Emirates does not use street-level ZIP codes, entering 00000 or N/A works on all local and international checkout forms, including Amazon, Shein, Noon, and Apple.
The Dubai postal code is 00000 across all neighborhoods, including Deira, Bur Dubai, Downtown Dubai, Dubai Marina, JVC, and Al Barsha. For physical mail sent via Emirates Post, you must use a rented Dubai P.O. Box number instead of a ZIP code.
The Abu Dhabi postal code is 00000 for all districts in Abu Dhabi City, Khalifa City, Mussafah, Al Reem Island, Al Ain, and Al Dhafra. Residents should pair 00000 with their Onwani building number and street name for accurate courier deliveries.
No, a P.O. Box is not a general area postal code. A P.O. Box is a private mailbox rented by an individual or company from Emirates Post. Only enter a P.O. Box number if you or your employer own that specific box; otherwise, enter 00000 in the postal code field.
A Makani number is an official 10-digit smart geography code used in Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, and Umm Al Quwain. It pinpoints the exact entrance of any building to within one meter accuracy, helping couriers and emergency services find your door without a ZIP code.
The Sharjah postal code is 00000 for all areas, including Al Majaz, Al Nahda, Muwaileh, Al Khan, Rolla, and Khorfakkan. Enter 00000 in the ZIP code box and provide your street, building name, and Makani number in the address line.
Both the Ajman postal code and the Ras Al Khaimah (RAK) postal code are 00000. Whether you live in Al Nuaimiya or Al Jurf in Ajman, or Al Nakheel or Al Hamra Village in RAK, use 00000 for all online forms and credit card billing addresses.

If your package is shipped via private couriers like DHL, FedEx, Aramex, or UPS, enter 00000 as the postal code along with your home address and UAE phone number—they deliver straight to your door. For standard postal mail via Emirates Post, you can use your company's P.O. Box or subscribe to Emirates Post Home Delivery.
If an international website rejects 00000, enter 0000 (four zeros), 99999, N/A, or your 5-digit office P.O. Box number (padded with leading zeros, such as 01234).
