Banka Postal Codes, Haut-Nkam, Ouest Cameroon
There is no official postal code or zip code for Banka, 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.
