DATA AND CURIOSITIES

The postal addressing system was created with the aim of organizing, speeding up and facilitating the posting, location and distribution of correspondence in a logical manner. The system was created by the Brazilian Post and Telegraph Company in May 1971. Until May 1992, Postal Address Codes throughout Brazil had the format 00000 (five digits).

With the increase in population, volume of correspondence and the need to create more specific codes for large mail recipients, the five-digit system became insufficient in large cities. As a result, in May 1992, the Post Office changed the format of postal codes throughout Brazil, which now have eight digits: 00000-000 (five digits - hyphen - three digits).

CEP STRUCTURE

The first five digits have the same function in the system in force in the 1970s and 80s and in the current one: locating the region, state, municipality and region or district. The neighborhood (in most cases) and the street (or, if a major recipient of mail, the condominium, company, etc.) began to be identified by the three-digit suffix added to Brazilian postal codes in 1992.

Brazil was divided into ten postal zones, from 0 to 9, counted from the state of São Paulo, in a counterclockwise direction. The division took place according to population and economic criteria at the time (1972), which implied some distortions that exist today.

The purpose of CEP is to rationalize correspondence separation methods by simplifying the phases of the sorting, forwarding and distribution processes, allowing mechanized processing with the use of electronic sorting equipment.

Only locations with more than 50,000 inhabitants living in the urban area have postal codes by street (streets, avenues, lanes, etc., with certain avenues or streets having more than one zip code). When the municipality does not have a postal code for a street, the so-called generic code - followed by the number -000 - is used, for example: Capão da Canoa, Rio Grande do Sul, CEP 95555-000
