Look up ZIP code

Find the city and state a US ZIP code belongs to, for filling in the rest of an address or checking what someone typed into a form. Territories and military addresses are covered too. A ZIP code Ziptastic does not know comes back with 'found' set to false rather than failing the step. No API key required.

Inputs

ZIP codezip_codetextRequired
A five-digit US ZIP code. ZIP+4 such as 48867-1234 is fine: only the first five digits are looked up.

city_as_listedtext
The city exactly as Ziptastic lists it, in capitals, e.g. 'OWOSSO'.
countrytext
The country's two-letter code: always 'US' for a ZIP code found.

The state's two-letter USPS abbreviation, e.g. 'MI'.

The state, territory or military region written out, e.g. 'Michigan', 'Puerto Rico' or 'Armed Forces Europe'.
