Random France Address Generator
The French code postal is five digits whose first two name the département — a numbering scheme that has been stable since 1964 and is deeply familiar to French users. Paris is 75, and a Parisian will spot a wrong first pair instantly.

How France addresses are structured
18 régions and 101 départements. La Poste wants the commune name in capitals on the same line as the postal code; the région is not used in addressing.

Code postal format
| Local name | code postal |
|---|---|
| Format | 5 digits |
| Example | 75009 |
- The first two digits are the département number: 75 Paris, 13 Bouches-du-Rhône, 69 Rhône, 33 Gironde.
- Départements are numbered roughly alphabetically, a legacy of the 1790 reorganisation.
- Corsica is the exception — départements 2A and 2B both use postal codes starting 20.
- Paris arrondissements are encoded in the last two digits: 75009 is the ninth arrondissement.
France phone number format
| Country code | +33 |
|---|---|
| Numbering plan | French Numbering Plan |
| Example | +33 6 12 34 56 78 |
- Ten digits nationally, always starting with 0, which is dropped for international format.
- Mobiles begin 06 or 07. The leading digit after the zero is geographic for landlines: 01 Île-de-France, 04 south-east, 05 south-west.
- French convention writes numbers in pairs — 06 12 34 56 78 — which your display formatting should respect.
numéro de sécurité sociale (NIR)
| Identifier | numéro de sécurité sociale (NIR) |
|---|---|
| Example shape | 1 84 12 75 116 274 45 |
- Fifteen digits that genuinely encode the holder: sex, birth year, birth month, département and commune of birth, a sequence number, then a two-digit key.
- The first digit is 1 for male and 2 for female.
- The final two digits are a modulus-97 control key over the preceding thirteen.
The identity numbers this page generates match the documented digit pattern so that form validation can be tested. They are not issued numbers, they correspond to no person, and they will not resolve against any authority.
Cities and régions and départements
The generator draws from these cities. Each is paired with the régions and département it is actually in, and with the code postal prefix that area really uses — so a generated record is internally consistent rather than three unrelated values stuck together.
| City | Région | Code postal prefix |
|---|---|---|
| Paris | Île-de-France IDF | 750 |
| Marseille | Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur PAC | 130 |
| Nice | Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur PAC | 060 |
| Lyon | Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes ARA | 690 |

Frequently asked questions
What do the first two digits of a French postal code mean?
They identify the département, numbered close to alphabetically since the Revolution. 75 is Paris, 13 is Bouches-du-Rhône, 69 is Rhône. It is one of the few postal systems where the geographic meaning is common knowledge among ordinary users, so a mismatched pair looks obviously wrong.
How is a Paris arrondissement written?
It is folded into the postal code rather than written separately. 75001 through 75020 correspond to the twenty arrondissements, so 75009 means the ninth. There is no separate district field.
Does the NIR encode real information?
The real one does — sex, birth date, and place of birth are all embedded, which is why it is treated as sensitive personal data under French law. The values generated here follow the digit pattern for testing and encode nothing about a real person.
Why are French phone numbers written in pairs?
It is the standard national convention and how French speakers read numbers aloud. Storing digits unformatted is fine, but displaying +33 612345678 instead of 06 12 34 56 78 reads as foreign to a French user.
