Cultural Tip

In Spanish‑speaking countries the código postal is essential for mail delivery. In Spain it consists of five digits (e.g., 28013 for central Madrid), while in Mexico it also uses five digits but with a different regional distribution. Always check the local format before writing it down, and avoid using the English term ZIP code unless you know the audience prefers it.
