I use the Online Shipping Service of DPD. Why do I get a postcode error?
Often it is because international postcodes have a slightly different format than what we are used to in the Netherlands. Below is a list of the formats used in the countries that parcels can be sent to via pakkettenversturen.nl. If the table below does not solve the problem, please contact our Customer Service.
N = number, L = letter
