Islamabad Capital Territory

About Islamabad Capital Territory

Islamabad, Pakistan’s capital city, is located on the Pothohar Plateau within Islamabad Capital Territory. The territory is shown separately from Punjab in this directory, so its administrative records should be opened from this page rather than assumed to be part of a neighbouring province.

The stored hierarchy for Islamabad links directly to its district record. No division is inserted simply to make its structure resemble the provincial pages. Follow the district link to inspect the smaller administrative record available in this dataset.

The existing postal system labels Islamabad’s region as Federal Capital. That label is recognised when linking to the Islamabad city postal directory. It does not mean that every Islamabad address uses the GPO code: sectors, institutions and named post offices can have different codes. Check the precise address in the postal directory.
