How does BR postcode work?
A BR postcode matches a full or partial postcode against Royal Mail's Postcode Address File (PAF), the UK's official address database of around 31 million addresses across roughly 1.8 million postcodes. You type a BR postcode, AutoPostcode returns every deliverable address at that location in milliseconds, and the user selects the correct one — no manual typing, no typos.
AutoPostcode's BR data is drawn from the same national PAF file used by Royal Mail, so a lookup in BR is as accurate as anywhere else in the UK. Integrate it through our postcode lookup API or drop the widget into any checkout with a few lines of code.
Which postcodes does BR use?
The BR postcode area is anchored on Bromley, running from BR1 in the town centre out to Beckenham (BR3), Orpington (BR5–BR6) and Chislehurst (BR7). All BR districts resolve against Royal Mail PAF.
