India Post Offices in Porbandar, Gujarat

For a coastal district of its size, Porbandar keeps a fairly wide postal footprint. There are 98 post offices here, covering 17 separate pin codes, and the reach stretches from the town centre out to fishing villages and farming hamlets along the Saurashtra coast. Most of that ground is held by the Porbandar taluka itself, which carries 52 of the offices and the largest share of pin codes in the district.

The structure is straightforward once you break it down. One Head Post Office sits at the top, the Porbandar HPO on pin 360575, and the rest of the post offices in Porbandar report up through it: 14 Sub Post Offices and 83 Branch Post Offices. That last number tells the real story. About 85 percent of all counters are small village branches, so day-to-day post in this district largely runs through tiny offices rather than big ones.

Those village branches often keep short, single-shift hours, so if you are mailing from a place like Bagvadar or Bokhira, it pays to reach the counter early in the day rather than after lunch. Pin codes here cluster in the 360 range, with examples such as 360545 around Adityana, 360531, 360570 and 360510 dotting the smaller settlements, and villages like Advana, Balej and Bhadula falling under nearby branch offices. The Kutiyana area to the east runs its own cluster of Kutiyana post offices too.

For anything heavier or time-sensitive, Speed Post and parcel booking are best done at the head office or one of the sub offices, where counter services are fuller. You can estimate charges first with the speed post cost calculator, confirm an address on the Gujarat pin code finder, or browse more districts through the Gujarat post office directory, including another district in Gujarat like Amreli.
