Instruction manual

The city of Kharkov, like all other cities of Ukraine, has its own five-digit postal code. The first two digits indicate the code of the settlement (for Kharkov it is 61), and the remaining three indicate the number of the corresponding post office. In Kharkov, the postal code 61000 is common. The index of the Main Post Office, the main communication center, is 61001.

In Kharkov, and not only by postcode, you can find the necessary post office, where you should receive parcels, transfers, pensions, benefits and other social benefits.

You can easily find your exact zip code on the Internet. To do this, just go to the website of the Ukrainian state-owned enterprise Ukrposhta. The service located there allows you to find a zip code by the name of the city and street. Go to the search page and first select the search mode at the location of the settlement. Then select the name of the region (Kharkiv) and the region (regional center). After that, enter in Ukrainian at least the first 3 letters in the name of the street of interest.

As a result of the search, the full name of the street and the corresponding zip code will be displayed. However, in Kharkov there are a lot of long streets, on which several post offices can be located at once. In this case, the search will show indexes with reference to specific house numbers. There, by reference, you can find all the detailed information (address, map, phone number, mode of operation) about the corresponding post office.

When you moved to an unfamiliar area of Kharkov or rented an apartment there, ask your neighbors for the address of the nearest post office. There they will prompt a zip code for their new home. On Kharkiv post offices, they can also suggest an index for any street and home. Therefore, if you need to urgently send a letter or provide information about your zip code, also contact the post office.

When issuing a letter or parcel within Ukraine, remember that in the addresses of the sender and recipient, the index is always written last. However, if a letter arrives in Kharkov from abroad, the name of the country should be indicated after the index.
note
Now in Kharkov there are several alternative courier services for the delivery of correspondence and parcels. For them, zip code information may be optional. This is due to the fact that the reception and delivery of departures occurs through a network of own points.
Useful advice
When it is still not possible to obtain information about the desired postal code of the city of Kharkov, by which a letter should be sent, write on the envelope 61000. In this case, the letter will also be delivered to its destination.
