We do not have one however make sure when you send something to the island be sure to add "Dutch Caribbean or Dutch West Indies" to the address to avoid it being sent to Europe.

Thanks Michael & Liz
I'm trying to fill out one of those awful computer forms & it won't let me finish without a zip code. I found one at one point that worked on a similar form, but now can't re-find it. Bummer! Anyone else????
It's apparent that one isn't routinely used, but does anyone have another solution to this 'problem'???
TIA,
Louise
PS - Michael... what will you need brought from the USofA early Dec?

You can use the word BONAIRE as the postal code. Most computer programs are set up to take letters. It is redundant but completes the form so you can finish.

most of the time if the pc or the form accepts it and a zip/postal code is asked I use n.a. or neth. ant.(netherlands antilles). hope yours takes it.

You should not us NA because that is the country code for Namibia (in Africa) not the Netherlands Antilles. The correct country code is AN. That said I've seen NA used many times locally but for use in the international postal system it would be confusing.

Hi!

There are no postal codes, but I was successfull in using N/A for Not Available, this after I got information from my CreditCard company.
It worked...
