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:

Postcode Unit. The last two letters. In our case BZ.

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