Postal codes in the Czech Republic

Postal codes in the Czech Republic are called PSČ (PSČ, stands for Czech: Poštovní směrovací číslo, pronounced [ˈpoʃtovɲiː ˈsmɲɛrovatsiː ˈtʃiːslo] - postal routing number). The acronym is commonly pronounced as a word ([ˈpəsətʃə]), rather than separate letters ([ˈpɛː.ɛs.tʃɛː]). The system was introduced in former Czechoslovakia in 1973 and has remained unchanged. The postal code consists of five digits, usually written with a space in the form XXX XX. The first digit indicates a region (i.e. regions of Czechoslovakia as of the time when PSČ system went in use, hence some differences from current administrative divisions):
