A South Korea address can combine current and non-current post codes with street-based and lot-based address information. A lot-based address might have an older or newer post code, and a street-based address might have an older or newer post code. You can use Address Verification to obtain different combinations of the address and the post code. The steps that you take depend on the combination of address data values in the input address and the versions of the address data that you require.

The following table shows the different types of address that you can verify:

When you verify an address in batch or interactive mode, Address Verification returns an address ID with the final character A, B, C, or D. The final character identifies the types of information that the address contains.

The final character identifies the following combinations:

To obtain a different combination of address data, replace the final character in the address ID value with the character that represents the combination that you require. Then enter the modified address ID in address code lookup mode.

Address Verification does not verify building or sub-building data in a South Korea address. If you enter an address that contains building or sub-building data in batch or interactive mode, Address Verification copies the data to the output address.

Address Verification does not return building or sub-building data for a South Korea address in address code lookup mode. If you enter an address ID code for a South Korea address that contains building or sub-building data, you must add the relevant information to the output address. The building or sub-building data that you add to the output address must match the output address format.

For example, the following address element includes the 번지 or

lot number identifier:

Address Verification parses 20번지 to the house number field.
