This post contains all updated Lagos State, Nigeria, postal codes for towns, cities, Local Government Areas (LGAs), and Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs).
Lagos is located in southwest Nigeria and is surrounded by the Bight of Benin to the south and the international border with the Republic of Benin to the west. Lagos State borders Ogun State to the north and east, making it the only Nigerian state to border only one other state.
When filling out forms online, you may have encountered a column asking for a ZIP or postal code. This is particularly important, especially when shopping on platforms like AliExpress, Amazon, or eBay, or when making deliveries and registrations in Nigeria.
Although people sometimes mistake 23401 as a general Nigerian postal code, each area in Lagos has its own unique postal code. Lagos State is divided into several LGAs and LCDAs, and each has a specific code.
This article provides the complete list of Lagos State postal codes. You can easily navigate to your desired LGA or area.
