Porhi Postal Codes, Mayo-Danay, Extrême-Nord Cameroon

There is no official postal code or zip code for Porhi, as the Cameroon postal service does not use codes for sorting or "door-to-door" delivery. The system relies almost exclusively on P.O. Boxes (French: Boîte Postale or BP). If an online form requires a mandatory code, 00000 (five zeros) can be used as a placeholder, but this is not an official code. For successful delivery, a valid P.O. Box (BP) number is essential. A sample P.O. Box address is: [Recipient Name], BP [XXXX], Porhi, Mayo-Danay, Extrême-Nord, Cameroon.
