Bad postal code

Hi, this is not a bug, but it's need to change in a future. The format code for postal code in Argentina is NNNN (4 numbers, per example 1900 is La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina) Regards

This has to be fixed in PS before it was forked to TB but I can't be sure.

Are you sure the postal code NNNN works for Argentina? https://github.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop/commit/82350a5f2a64835b8b3d2c49a18af64729d3a3f1

And many sites as: https://codigo-postal.co/en-us/argentina/entre-rios/alcaraz-norte/

Every Argentinian customer of mine puts only the new code which is LNNNNLLL. All major courier companies refuse NNNN only.

I live in Argentina, Here the most people use NNNN, but you reference to CPA of Argentine post. the CPA yes is LNNNNLL but dont all people use it. I dont know how is in the others country for send package to here, I in ebay, amazon, chinese webs, all the time use NNNN and worked.

In teory with the CPA (LNNNNLL) you dont need use your adresss (only need the CPA), but if you use normal address and postal code use NNNN Are only 1 CPA per number of house.

LNNNNLL First L = Province NNNN = Postal code LL = apple face

But if we keep the short format then merchants will have problems when they need the long one. The short can be easily extracted when needed...

And yet again- both DHL and TNT refuse postal codes with only 4 numbers for Argentina (personal experience) so in the first case before I pushed this PR I needed to ask the customer to supply additional info.

Haaa ok, close this post. I dont know DHL and TNT or others providers needed the CPA. Thanks for the info

We have the same issue in the UK . In the end I just left it blank and it works fine . I suppose the only issue is if they don't put 1 in it still passes
