ZIP codes of cities and municipalities in Metro Manila according to the first two numbers

In the Philippines, a ZIP code is used by the Philippine Postal Corporation (PhlPost) to simplify the distribution of mail.

A ZIP code is composed of a four-digit number representing a locality. Usually, more than one code is issued for areas within Metro Manila, and a single code for each municipality and each city in provinces, with exceptions such as:

• Davao City with eleven ZIP codes (8000, 8016 to 8026);
• Antipolo with six ZIP codes (1870 to 1875);
• Calamba (Laguna), Cavite City, Dasmariñas, Mabalacat, Mariveles, and the Island Garden City of Samal with three ZIP codes each; and
• Angeles City, Bacoor, Baguio, Bamban, Biñan, Capas, Floridablanca, General Tinio, Labo, Laur, Limay, Lipa, Los Baños, Lubao, Lucena, Majayjay, Muñoz, Palayan, Porac, Puerto Princesa, Sagay, San Jose del Monte, San Rafael (Bulacan), Santa Rosa (Laguna), Santa Rosa (Nueva Ecija), Silay, Sorsogon City, and Tagbina with two ZIP codes each.
