Before reunification in 1993, both the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) and the German Democratic Republic (DDR) used four-digit codes. Under a transitional arrangement following reunification, between 1989 and 1993 postal codes in the west were prefixed with 'W' (example W-1000 Berlin 30 (postal districts in western cities were separate from the postal code) and those in the east with 'O' (for Ost), e.g.: O-1xxx Berlin).

High mail volume postal customers or Großkunden have their own postal codes. Those german postal codes are separate from those used for postal districts or PO Box number ranges. In germany, sorting many by state is not practical because postal regions donot follow state borders.
