    HI,

    I think the file format per country is different. If it has a structure you can use it in Data Import/Export Framework (DIXF). Eventually it is possible to format the file to a readable content yourself.

    For the Dutch zip codes it is possible to buy the file and import it into AX2012. This file format is supported.

    Other files can be imported with help of DIXF.

    You can create the base for a new enitity with help of the table DMFLogisticsAddressZipCode. Then indeed if you need to import the cities, the reference should be handled manually. You would need to add a new 'Generate' method on the helper class to add the City record and popupate the record id. It is also possible to disable the City validation in the Address paramters. Then the City itself is stored without the validation in the City table.
