The postcodes of Buchs (SG)

A postcode can straddle two municipalities in different regions. The municipality determines the premium, not the postcode — hence the list below.

  • 9469 Haag (Rheintal)
  • 9470 Buchs SG

Region 2 — St. Gallen

The FOPH splits some cantons into several premium regions. Two neighbouring municipalities can therefore pay different prices — which is why we never show a cantonal average in place of your prices.
