Deutsche Post Leitcode

The Deutsche Post Leitcode symbology, or German Postal 2 of 5 LeitCode, LeitCode, or CodeLeitcode, is used by Deutsche Post AG (Deutsche Frachtpost). This barcode identifies the destination.

A value that the barcode encodes should consist of 13 or 14 digits:

 

5 digits for a Postal Code (Postleitzahl, PLZ);

3 digits for a Street ID/number;

3 digits for a House number;

2 digits for a Product code;

1 digit for a checksum (optional).

 

When you specify 13 digits, the barcode generates a checksum digit automatically. If you add a checksum digit, the barcode ignores this digit and also generates it automatically to ensure the encoded value is valid.
