Overview
The National Physical Addressing (NaPA) Portal is an innovative digital platform developed by Tanzania’s Ministry of Communication and Information Technology to implement the country’s standardized addressing system. This comprehensive framework assigns unique postcodes, street names, and property numbers to all locations nationwide. The portal maintains the central address database, supports address validation, and provides mapping services. It enhances service delivery across multiple sectors by improving location identification for emergency services, postal operations, utility connections, and commercial deliveries. NaPA represents Tanzania’s commitment to building modern addressing infrastructure that facilitates both government services and private sector activities requiring precise location information.
