Jammu & Kashmir PIN Codes

Union Territory · Capital: Srinagar · 18 Districts · 1,685 Post Offices · 242 PIN Codes

Jammu & Kashmir, a union territory since 2019, has a unique dual-climate postal network divided between the Jammu division (plains and Shivaliks) and the Kashmir Valley (high-altitude Himalayan region). Winter snowfall regularly cuts off road access to remote post offices in Kargil, Gurez, and Lolab valley, making India Post deliveries here a testament to dedication.

J&K PIN codes begin with 18–19, with Srinagar GPO and Jammu HO as the two major circle offices.
