In their own words
UPU POST*CODE API
UPU POST*CODE API verifies international addresses using official locality names and postcode data from UPU member countries. Its checks cover a country’s postcode format, whether a postcode matches a locality, postcodes associated with a locality, and localities associated with a postcode. LocalityLike suggests official locality names and postal regions from the beginning of a partial locality input. The API is intended for designated postal operators, businesses, and individuals handling international addresses, including customs declarations, web shops, user platforms, and ERP systems. It can run as a CDS plugin, through the CDS API gateway or other middleware, or inside postal websites and local applications. Development guidance covers HTML, web applications, JavaScript form handling, and sample code for jQuery and Python. Documentation includes tutorials, quick-start guides, and developer tooling. UPU says response time is under one second and performance can be adjusted to expected call volume. Pricing is on request, with a free trial available by contacting UPU.
