README

The data in this library is based on the public data provided by bpost (https://www.bpost.be/nl/postcodes).

Zip codes are ordered by region/province. For these regions the ISO 3166 code is used (https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#iso:code:3166:BE)

Installation

Requirement: PHP version >=7.2

composer require optiosteam/belgian-region-zip

Description

This library contains 1 main class BelgianRegionZipHelper with 3 static functions:

• BelgianRegionZipHelper::getRegions() returns all Belgian Regions/Provinces
• BelgianRegionZipHelper::getZipCodesByRegionIsoCode(string $regionIsoCode) returns all zip codes within a certain region/province
• BelgianRegionZipHelper::getMunicipalitiesByZipCode(string $zipCode, ?string $regionIsoCode = null, ?string $languageCode = null) returns all municipalities for a certain zip code. Optionally you can pass the region and the language. NOTE: bpost only provides translations of municipalities in Brussels, for other regions the Dutch and French name are the same.

For more information on the data structure, you can look at the json data in src/Data
