Each street has a different post code. Tell me the street name and I'll look up the postcode for you.

There is no zip code for London.
Each district has its own postcode. Use the link below to find the one that you're interested in.

The postal codes in the UK are different from those in America. There are many different postcodes for different areas of London.

If you know the address of where you are sending to, I would recommend going here:

You need to be more specific...that's like asking 'What's the zip code for California'?

On this picture it shows the postcodes map of (main)London
areas such as wembley do not contain any of these postcodes for example (HA3) which comes from (Harrow) as people define this area as middlesex despite being in London (Wembley is in zone4 which is far out from teh main city so the postcode is under middlesex instead. As London has a large population and size it does not carry one specific postcode

we don't have a zip code, the equivalent in the UK is called a post code... there is no real explanation of how they work and set up apart from they are set up on compass directions around the Thames river

Ignore Timothy S..

UK postcodes, including London, can be up to 8 characters long (always including a single space).

London had postal districts, like Timothy's E17, long before postcodes. In London the postcode became an extension of the old district. Some districts however contained a lot more addresses and/or large business users than others, so had to be further segregated by adding a letter to the end of the original postal district.

For example you get SW1A 1AA, W1A 4WW, EC1V 1LE, and so on.
