Postcode and Address Enhancement (PAF)

The Royal Mail PAF database contains all known UK addresses and Postcodes. There are more than 28 million available, enabling Data Cleansing Services to cross reference your data, making corrections and appending extra information where the record is incorrect or incomplete.

Amends and additions can include;

• Correcting instances where the town or county has been spelt incorrectly.
• Ensuring towns, counties & postcodes are in fixed fields.
• Providing a Delivery Point Suffix (DPS) enabling the generation of a Mailsort barcode for larger mailings.
• Data can be output in several formats, including splitting house-name and numbers into separate fields.

Your data should be screened against PAF on a regular basis to ensure you maintain your database and any new prospect lists you want to mail. Correctly addressed records will save money on undeliverable mail and the associated staff costs of dealing with returned items.
