Maritime is one of Togo's five administrative regions, located in the southernmost part of the country along the Gulf of Guinea coastline. This coastal region serves as Togo's primary economic and administrative hub, containing the nation's capital city of Lomé, which functions as both the regional capital and the country's largest urban center. With an area of approximately 6,100 square kilometers, Maritime is the smallest of Togo's regions by land area but the most densely populated, home to roughly 2.6 million people according to recent estimates. The region is divided into five prefectures: Golfe, Lacs, Vo, Yoto, and Zio, each containing multiple municipalities and villages that contribute to the region's diverse administrative structure. Characterized by its tropical climate and coastal plains, Maritime features important economic infrastructure including the Port of Lomé, which serves as a major West African trade gateway. This region's strategic position makes it crucial for accessing comprehensive postal code information for its various municipalities and urban centers, facilitating efficient mail delivery and administrative services throughout southern Togo.
