For either UK and Netherlands only, or for all countries, or not at all?

Thanks.

The UK and the Netherlands are the only countries that have Postcodes as we know them.

Other countries, like France, have area codes that are not as precise as full Postcodes.

Other countries don't seem to have any.

Cheers. But do we know for sure if the postcodes work for UK and Netherlands if using only the Western & Central Europe map?

The UK postcodes certainly work OK - can;t comment on NL as of yet but I'd be very surprised if they didn't work as before...

No reason to assume they won't.

Netherlands ones probably only show when in that region.

The UK and Netherland Postcodes appear on there own when you are in whichever country. If you are in any other country and use Navigate to Postcode, you get the option of using either Postcode.

If you want to plan a route in the Netherlands, while still in the UK, you can use HOME, and the Virtual TomTom.

If you can keep away from a GPS fix, it is possible with AtoB Planning.
