AB30 1QR is a postal code used within the United Kingdom for delivering mail.

Postcodes are made up of two parts. The part before the space (AB30) is called the outward code. The part after the space (1QR) is called the inward code. The letters C, I, K, M, O and V are not allowed in the inward code. In addition to the inward and outward code, the postcode can be broken up into four parts:

Postal Area. In our case AB which means Aberdeen.
Postal District. In our case AB30.
Postal Sector. In our case AB30 1.
Postcode Unit. The last two letters. In our case QR.

The regional mail center for the post area AB is the Scottish Distribution Centre, which is located at Canyon Road, Excelsior Park, Netherton Industrial Est, WISHAW, ML2 0XX.

The final port of call for any post addressed to the AB30 1QR postcode is the local delivery office (DO) which is . Here the post will be sorted ready for delivery.
