This North Scotland Postcode District Map provides detailed postcode coverage across the Scottish Highlands and islands, combining Ordnance Survey mapping with clearly defined district boundaries. It includes districts such as AB (Aberdeen), IV (Inverness), KW (Caithness & Orkney), and ZE (Shetland).

Designed for business, logistics, and planning, this high-resolution PDF is ideal for defining delivery zones, sales territories, and regional analysis across North Scotland, including Orkney and Shetland.

What is a Postcode District Map?

A postcode district map shows the second level of the UK postcode system, where each postcode area (e.g. IV or AB) is divided into numbered districts (e.g. IV1, AB10).

Compared to postcode area maps, district maps provide:

  • more detailed geographic breakdown
  • better targeting for logistics and delivery
  • clearer regional analysis

This makes them ideal for organisations operating across large, sparsely populated regions like the Scottish Highlands and islands

How will my files be supplied?

Map files are supplied in PDF format and are available to download immediately after payment has completed on the Thank You page through a displayed download link. If you miss this the download link is also emailed to you, so make sure you can access the email address entered at checkout.

Help! I've clicked the download link and I am getting an error or it's telling me the 'link has expired'. Can you help?

Printing the Map Files

Do you supply Printed Maps?

No, we only supply OS mapping in digital format - most often in PDF format. This is easy to open and use on most electronic devices and is also very easy to print from.

Can I have my map files printed?

We don't offer a printing service, but you can take your map file to a local printing company, or send it by email to a national company to have the file printed to your specification.

More Printing Queries

Can I change the print size when I get the map file printed?

We do not recommend changing the print size. All the map files have been created to be printed at Actual Size. This keeps it easy when it comes to printing, just print it at the size it's supposed to be. If the file is scaled then it could become blurry, blocky or otherwise illegible.

Can I print a map from the file I've bought?

Yes, typically you are licenced to print one copy of the map from the file purchase. If you want more prints please increase the number of items you want to purchase in the Quantity box.

Can I use the map or parts of it online?

No, you can not publish the file online without the correct licence. This can be obtained from OS, please contact us for more information.
