Brazil Address Format Guide
Brazilian postal codes (CEP, Código de Endereçamento Postal) use a 5-digit + 3-digit format (e.g. 01310-100), where the first digit identifies one of Brazil's 8 postal regions (0 covers São Paulo state and its surroundings). A distinctive feature of Brazilian addresses is the "Bairro" (neighborhood) field, which is almost always required. The standard format is: street + house number, neighborhood, city - state abbreviation, CEP, Brazil, for example "Av. Paulista 1000, Bela Vista, São Paulo - SP, 01310-100, Brazil", with the two-letter state abbreviation (SP for São Paulo state) typically following the city name after a hyphen.

FAQ
What format is the Brazilian CEP postcode?
A CEP follows a 5-digit-hyphen-3-digit format (e.g. 01310-100). The first digit identifies one of Brazil's 8 postal regions, and the remaining digits narrow it down to a specific city and neighborhood.
What is "Bairro" in an address, and why does it matter?
Bairro is Portuguese for "neighborhood," a standard subdivision within Brazilian cities. Almost every Brazilian address form requires it, unlike many countries where a neighborhood field is optional — this is one of the more distinctive features of Brazilian address format.
Why does a hyphen and two letters follow the city name?
That's the Brazilian state abbreviation (SP for São Paulo state, RJ for Rio de Janeiro state), written as "City - State" with a hyphen — a formatting detail that sets Brazilian addresses apart from most other countries.
Does it cover all 26 Brazilian states plus the Federal District?
Yes, you can specify one or generate randomly.
Can these addresses be used for real deliveries?
No, the generated results are fictional test data intended only for format reference and development testing.
