Geocoding — entry 065 of 80

PostcodeData.nl

Verified Jul 2026

PostcodeData.nl is a free, keyless Dutch postcode-lookup API: given a 4-digit-plus-2-letter postcode and house number it returns the street, city, municipality, province, RD (Rijksdriehoek) coordinates, and WGS84 lat/lon in JSON or XML. It's HTTP-only — there's no working TLS endpoint, so requests over https fail with a 502 gateway error.
