Tips for Pretoria addresses
- Do not drop the leading zero. Pretoria codes start with 0. Spreadsheets and some online forms strip it, turning 0181 into 181. Format the cell as text, or check the code before you print labels.
- Use the suburb’s own code. 0002 is for central Pretoria only.
- Street or box? Couriers need the street code. Hatfield, for example, uses 0083 for streets and 0028 for PO Boxes.
