Jersey is the largest of the Channel Islands, located in the English Channel roughly 14 km off the coast of Normandy, France, and about 160 km south of mainland England. The island is a self-governing Crown dependency of the United Kingdom and has a rugged coastline with cliffs, bays and sheltered harbours; its interior features gently rolling hills, valleys and farmland rather than major mountain ranges or large rivers. The terrain rises only modestly above sea level, and as such the island relies on groundwater aquifers and reservoirs rather than major river systems. Jersey experiences a temperate maritime climate: summers are generally mild and dry with cooling sea breezes, while winters are moderately cool and wetter, with rainfall spread more evenly across the year than in continental climates. Strong winds and occasional storms from the Atlantic influence weather conditions and the surrounding sea moderates extreme temperatures.
Officially known as the Bailiwick of Jersey, the territory is a Crown dependency and not part of the United Kingdom; it enjoys internal self-government with its own legislative assembly (the States of Jersey) and appoints its own head of government (Chief Minister). The British monarch remains the head of state and is represented locally by a Lieutenant Governor. Key modern milestones include the establishment of Jersey’s separate postal and fiscal systems apart from the UK, and the evolution of its government under reforms throughout the late 20th and early 21st centuries. The capital is St. Helier, which is also the island’s most populous parish and economic centre.
Jersey has an estimated population of around 108,000 people (2024 estimate). The official language in government and education is English, while Jèrriais (a Norman French dialect) is recognised and spoken by a small number of islanders; French also holds a historical place and appears in some legal and cultural contexts. Culturally, Jersey is known for blending British and Norman influences, with traditions including the annual “Battle of Flowers” parade, locally produced Jersey cattle and cheese, and its maritime heritage tied to the sea, shipping and fishing. The island’s distinct identity is reinforced by its own postage stamps, licence plates and regulatory systems.
Jersey’s economy is heavily service-oriented, with financial services, funds and wealth management, tourism, and e-commerce/fulfilment all playing major roles. The island maintains an attractive regulatory and tax environment, which has encouraged international business, banking and offshore structures. Tourism leverages the island’s scenic landscapes, heritage and beaches, while agriculture and horticulture contribute smaller but still meaningful amounts. The official currency is the pound sterling (GBP), and while Jersey issues its own banknotes and coins, these are sterling-equivalent and used alongside UK currency within the island and for transactions with the UK.
The national postal service is Jersey Post, which manages mail and parcel delivery across the Bailiwick of Jersey. Jersey uses a postcode system modelled on the UK system: the format begins with the prefix “JE” followed by one digit, a space, then one digit and two letters (for example JE2 3AA). The first two characters “JE” designate the island of Jersey; the following digit (or digits) group a broad delivery area or parish. The characters after the space identify progressively smaller units – a district and then a particular street or small cluster of addresses, similar to UK sectors and units. Addresses on Jersey typically conclude with the postcode on the final line after the town/parish and before the country name. For example:
```
Recipient Name
House Number and Street Name
PARISH
JERSEY
JE2 3AA
```
Jersey Post offers an online “Address & postcode finder” tool to validate full addresses and postcodes, ensuring correct routing of mail and parcels. The island’s postcode system allows third-party address verification, logistical planning and compatibility with international shipping systems, with about 3,300 individual postcode units mapped across the island. If you need further detail on how to format addresses for PO Boxes, business mailings or international shipments to Jersey, I can provide examples.
