Create sample Chinese addresses in Chinese, pinyin, and English, with names and phone numbers for form testing.
Free · No account needed · Sample data for testing and learning
Names, phone numbers and optional building details are synthetic test data. Numbers are unverified and may coincide with real subscribers.
For testing and education. Roads and postal codes stay with their sourced reference house numbers; optional room details are synthetic. Examples are not verified delivery addresses.

This free China address generator creates sample records for testing and learning. Each result contains a sample recipient name in Chinese and pinyin, an optional eleven digit mobile number, a complete Chinese address, its full pinyin transcription, and an English address arranged from the smallest location to the largest. Separate fields show the province, city, district, street, house number, and a six digit postal code. The pinyin follows the Chinese text and retains administrative terms such as Shi and Qu. Numbers remain numerals, so you can compare the three versions without losing the house number.
No registration is needed. The initial examples remain readable without JavaScript; enable JavaScript to generate, copy, and download a new batch. These sample addresses are intended for controlled demonstrations, not deliveries.
Chinese address text normally moves from a large area to a small one: province → city → district → street → house number. Beijing and Shanghai are municipalities, so their names appear once in a complete address even though both the province and city fields contain the same name. A real delivery address may also need a building, floor, room, and recipient; this generator includes a sample recipient name and optional synthetic building, unit, and room fields.
The postal code is a separate routing element. On a postal label, the UPU examples place it before the province or municipality name. Our compact English display places it after the location text for easy copying into forms. Match a real shipment to the carrier's requested layout. See the UPU China addressing reference for postal label examples.
北京市朝阳区雅宝路8号
Beijing Shi Chaoyang Qu Yabao Lu 8 Hao
No. 8 Yabao Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing, 100020, China
广东省广州市天河区体育东路160号
Guangdong Sheng Guangzhou Shi Tianhe Qu Tiyudong Lu 160 Hao
No. 160 Tiyudong Road, Tianhe District, Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, 510620, China
These simplified examples retain the road, reference house number, and postcode listed in the Beijing and Guangzhou Bank of China directories (checked 24 October 2026). Source postcodes apply to those reference premises, not every number on the road; recipient and optional room details are synthetic.
Mainland China uses six digit postal codes. In the usual four level explanation, the first two digits indicate a province level postal region, the third narrows the postal area, the fourth identifies a county or city level area, and the final two identify the delivery office or area. These are postal routing codes, not telephone area codes. This structure is described in Xinhua's report explaining the postal coding system.
The table lists reference examples associated with ten cities, taken from TravelChinaGuide's city postal code table. A city can have many postal codes: one example does not cover every street, district, or delivery address. Look up the exact recipient address for real mail. This reference table does not expand the generator, which supports only Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen.
| City | Example postal code |
|---|---|
| Beijing | 100000 |
| Shanghai | 200000 |
| Guangzhou | 510000 |
| Shenzhen | 518000 |
| Chengdu | 610000 |
| Hangzhou | 310000 |
| Nanjing | 210000 |
| Xi'an | 710000 |
| Guilin | 541000 |
| Hohhot | 010000 |
Keep postal codes as text when moving data between systems. Hohhot's example begins with a zero; storing it as a number would discard that character. For CSV imports, set the postal_code column to Text before loading the data.
Begin a compact English address with the house number and street, then add the district, city, province where applicable, postal code, and country. This gives readers a small to large sequence. Chinese text normally uses the reverse geographical sequence, with the house number after the street. When comparing the two, check the components individually rather than expecting the words to occupy the same position. A municipality such as Shanghai does not need to be repeated as both city and province in the complete line.
Keep a place name recognizable by using its pinyin spelling. In the examples on this page, Lu becomes Road and Jie becomes Street, while Qu becomes District and Sheng becomes Province. These labels describe the role of a component. They are not a reason to translate a place name literally into a different English phrase. For instance, Yabao Road corresponds to Yabao Lu; the name remains Yabao in both versions.
Use commas to separate components in a single line, or put the components on separate lines if a form allows it. Enter the postal code in its own field when one is provided. For actual correspondence, obtain the recipient's complete address and follow the carrier's formatting instructions, including any building or room details. A generated example helps you understand the ordering but cannot confirm delivery information.
Check how your own forms handle Chinese characters, long address lines, and six digit postal code strings. Use a test environment where sample records are expected.
Export a repeatable fixture for checking layouts, imports, and field mapping. Save the current JSON before regenerating if a bug depends on a particular record.
Use sample data instead of your home address in screenshots or product demos. This reduces the need to expose personal details but does not make your activity anonymous.
Compare Chinese, pinyin, and English versions to explain address order and administrative components. Distinguish postal code format from delivery verification.
The four city pools use sourced city, district, road, reference house number, and postcode records rather than mixing those parts independently. A reference postcode is kept with its documented house number and is not treated as a code for the entire road or district.
Names, phone numbers, and optional building, unit, and room details are synthetic test data; numbers may coincide with real subscribers. The records do not establish a real recipient, delivery eligibility, or acceptance by another platform.
Choose Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, or Random city. Within each city, the tool uses roads before repeating them where possible, then balances reuse while avoiding duplicate complete addresses in a batch.
It copies English Address line 1, City, State/Province, and ZIP on separate lines, including the district and any enabled room details. Beijing and Shanghai appear in both City and State/Province because they are municipalities.
The phone switch hides phone numbers and exports an empty phone_number when off. Building details are off by default; switching them on includes the same synthetic details in Chinese, pinyin, English, copied form text, and exports.
CSV and JSON export the displayed records without generating another batch; JSON stores postal codes as six-character strings. In Excel, use Data → From Text/CSV and set postal_code to Text before loading, since double-clicking CSV can remove leading zeros.
No account is needed, and generation, copying, and export run in your browser without uploading generated records. The initial five examples work without JavaScript; interactive controls need JavaScript, and the Privacy Policy explains hosting requests and email feedback.
