Swiss Postal Codes

Posting a letter in Switzerland? The post code numbers for all addresses in all cantons including Lausanne, Geneva City and the towns and villages that make up the cantons of Geneva and Vaud.

Switzerland uses a four digit postal code (Liechtenstein is also part of the system). 

The postal code areas do not correlate directly with canton boundaries. 

The prefix CH- is often used on international mail within Europe to designate Swiss postal codes.

Swiss Addresses

Addresses in Switzerland are often formatted as follows:

M Dupont Jean
Rue de Valais, 2
CH-1201 Geneva

  • The house or apartment number appears after the name of the street
  • The postal code appears before the town name
  • Swiss letterboxes are all set in/on walls
