Hong Kong note entering problem

Post by eurobillsandcoins »

I want to enter a pile of notes I bought from an HSBC branch in Kowloon Tong this afternoon. But I needed to enter a zip code, but in Hong Kong there is no such thing as a postal code. Is it possible it can be altered, so that Hong Kong note enterers don't need a zip code? I'm already trying to promote EBT to Hong Kong.
Hong Kong-Asia's world city.

You can just put a X in zip-code part. There's no problem. The only thing is that the exact location can't be put into the system. So all the notes from Hong Kong wil get the same longitude and latitude. But if you get a hit from europe to hongkong those few last kilometers won't matter i think. :roll:

Look up what the Irishmen do. They also don't use post codes.
