Algeria Postal Code Database Sample.csv

Q: In what language are the data and documentation provided?

The dataset is provided in French/English (Latin Script).
While Arabic is the official language, the postal data uses the Latin alphabet for place names (e.g., "ADRAR", "TIMIMOUN"), making it compatible with international systems without needing transliteration.

Q: Does this dataset cover street addresses?

No. With approximately 3,800 records, this is a locality/post office level database.
It lists specific postal establishments, towns, and delivery zones, but it does not enumerate individual streets or house numbers. It is designed to validate the city/town and postal code combination.

Q: What does the 'post_region' column represent?

This column contains the name of the postal establishment or the served locality. You will often see composite names or specific designations:
· Localities: e.g., "TIMIMOUN".
· Specific Offices: e.g., "ADRAR 1ER NOV.54" (named after a specific date or landmark).
· RP (Recette Principale): You will frequently see the suffix "-RP" (e.g., "ADRAR-RP"). This stands for "Main Post Office" in French, indicating the central sorting branch for that region.

Q: What is the administrative hierarchy in the dataset?

The data focuses on the primary division:
· Wilaya: The Province (e.g., "ADRAR"). Algeria is divided into 58 Wilayas.
· Post Region: The specific postal delivery point within the Wilaya.

Q: What is the format of the postal code?

Algeria uses a 5-digit numeric postal code (e.g., 01000). This is found in the code_postal column.

Q: What file formats are included in the delivery?

The package includes CSV, Excel (.xlsx), and TXT formats. Since the dataset is compact (~3,800 rows), it is very easy to manage in Excel.

This is a one-time purchase. The license grants perpetual use for personal and internal business purposes.
