Postal codes in Denmark are determined by a four digit system that was introduced in 1967.
The self-governing territory of Greenland is part of the Danish system (39xx).
[2] Historically, the Faroe Islands also formed part of the Danish postal code system using the 38xx range and the prefix "FR", but this was changed to a new format consisting of a three-digit code and the country code "FO", with FR 3800 Tórshavn becoming FO-110 Tórshavn.
For example: New regulations add the country code DK to the postal codes,[citation needed] but in practice it is most often omitted.
Or in Danish: The postal codes follow a geographic pattern and most Danes can tell which region an address belongs to based on the postal code alone.
