What is the postcode of Copenhagen?

One city, many postcodes.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

Copenhagen does not have one single postcode. The city centre, København K, uses codes from 1001 to 1473, and København V (Vesterbro) uses 1500 to 1799. København Ø is 2100, København N is 2200, København S is 2300, København NV is 2400 and København SV is 2450. Frederiksberg has 2000, and Frederiksberg C has 1800 to 1974.

Why

  1. Many K and V codes belong to single streets, post boxes or companies.
  2. The letter after the name shows the part of the city.
  3. Frederiksberg has its own postcodes.

Details

Trafikstyrelsen has run the Danish postcode system since 1 January 2024, when it took over from Post Danmark.

Tip

For a hotel or flat in central Copenhagen, ask for the exact four-digit code, since København K alone has hundreds.

What may differ

Postcode borders rarely change, but Trafikstyrelsen can change them when it helps post delivery.

Common misconception

All of Copenhagen has the postcode 1000.

What actually happens

Copenhagen is split into many postcodes, from 1001 in København K to 2450 in København SV.
