In Germany, postcodes were introduced in 1941. Originally, they were composed of two digits and were used for parcel and packet services. Independent postal code system was developed in 1962 and 1965 in the Federal Republic in the GDR. Only in 1993, the two systems were connected to form a single, uniform system and so the five-digit ZIP code was introduced. This represents the first data on the postal codes for cities and villages.
5 digit ZIP Code of France, Netherlands and Sweden represented a model for the ZIP Code in Germany. The reason for introducing a new postal code was to parcel distribution automation. This way there was created the basis for sorting centers and also beginning with this time the letters were delivered in just two steps command. The modern system has enough reserves for new ZIP.
