About this dataset
Postal Codes Dataset for Romania (RO)
This dataset lists Romanian postal codes across every county (all județe plus București): street-level for București and every city over 50,000 population, locality-level (comună/oraș) elsewhere. Every row carries an official SIRUTA administrative code.
Column definitions, row count, size and last-updated date are in datapackage.yaml.
Data Sources
- Postal codes and SIRUTA administrative codes: © Poșta Română (the Romanian state postal operator), published via Romania's national open data portal data.gov.ro, licensed under the Open Government Licence Romania v1.0 (OGL-ROU-1.0): commercial reuse permitted, attribution required.
Changes made to the source data: place_name built from street type and street name; admin_code1 set to the
ISO 3166-2:RO code (RO- prefix stripped) from the county name; "Sector N" placed in admin_name2 for
București; house-number column dropped and the exact duplicates this leaves collapsed to the first row; postal
codes zero-padded to six digits.
Not endorsed by, or affiliated with, Poșta Română.
Known limitations
- Currency: the source file is dated 2016 (from its own file metadata) and the catalogue has no newer release. Its provenance is official, but its content is not current.
- No coordinates or alternative city names: the source does not provide them.
Usage
The dataset files are available in CSV format and can be accessed and downloaded using
the links provided in datapackage.yaml. Read postal_code as text, never as a number: Romanian
postal codes are six digits and can start with zero (011357).
