Street directory with sorting data
By downloading the “Street directory with sorting data”, you obtain all the street, hamlet and plot names as well as the postcodes valid for the addressing of all buildings served by the postal system in Switzerland and the Principality of Liechtenstein.
You can use the file as a reference for the postal validation of customers’ addresses or as the basis for preliminary sorting of correspondence (letters, newspapers, magazines and catalogues up to 1000 g). This helps ensure that your addressed items reach the right recipients safely and reliably.
