You are filling in a form, sending a parcel to PIF Tower, or booking a meeting in the King Abdullah Financial District, and you need the KAFD postal code right now. Here it is: 13519. One code covers the whole district, so your tower decides the building number, not the code.
KAFD is the financial heart of north Riyadh, with 95 towers, the metro station, and the offices of banks and funds. This page gives you the code, the towers that use it, and a way to check your exact building code, all for KAFD only.
What Is the KAFD Postal Code?
The KAFD postal code is 13519. The number breaks down as 1 for the Riyadh region, 35 for the northern sector, and 19 for the KAFD and Al Aqiq zone. It is also called the ZIP code, the term international websites use for the same five digit number.
KAFD is the district where Riyadh does finance. Its banks, funds, offices, hotels, and the conference centre use 13519 on forms, deliveries, and registrations every day. If you are sending a parcel to PIF Tower, booking the W Riyadh hotel, or registering a business address in KAFD, 13519 is the code you start with.
KAFD Postal Codes by Street and Building
| Code | Street / Area | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 13519 | PIF Tower area, Al Aqiq Street | Main district code. Use this for most KAFD addresses. |
| 13519 | KAFD Grand Mosque area, Al Aqiq | District code. |
| 13519 | W Riyadh hotel and KAFD Conference Center area | District code. |
If your building is not on this table, use 13519 for the district and check your exact building code on the SPL National Address map. The short check is in the How to Find section below.
Why Different Websites Show Different KAFD Codes
Three codes appear on guides that get KAFD wrong. Khaleejblog lists 12574 as the KAFD code, and ksapoint and saudiscoop list 12574 too. That number belongs to King Abdullah District, a different district, not KAFD. Offices.co lists 12363 for KAFD, and some guides list 11564, the general Riyadh code.
No real business address in KAFD uses any of these three. The official KAFD directory, the W Riyadh hotel, Regus, and the KAFD Conference Center all give 13519, with Al Aqiq as the neighbourhood. The guides picked a number from a table instead of checking a real KAFD address.
Use 13519 for the district. Use the table above for your tower. Use the SPL map for your exact building.
Where Is KAFD?
KAFD sits in north Riyadh, in the Al Aqiq area, in the northern 13 zone. King Fahd Road runs along it, with the Northern Ring Road nearby, and Al Aqeeq Street runs through the district. It is less than a 30 minute drive from King Khalid International Airport.
The district sits next to Al Malqa postal code to the north and Al Olaya postal code to the south. Its northern position is why the district code appears on so many finance and office addresses, and why visitors often mix it up with the older business districts. Al Yasmin sits a short drive north of KAFD, and the Al Yasmin postal code is 13322.
Many people in Riyadh still give directions by landmark instead of a code. They say “near PIF Tower” or “by KAFD Metro Station” rather than 13519. That works for a taxi driver, because drivers know the big landmarks. It does not work for a delivery or an official form, because a landmark covers a whole area and the code points to your building. Give both together: “Al Aqeeq Street, near PIF Tower, 13519”.

Living in KAFD
KAFD is where Riyadh works in finance. Banks, funds, and company offices fill the towers, with hotels, restaurants, and shops at street level, and homes in the district too. That is why most people who look up this code are sending something to an office or a hotel here.
Transport and Getting Around
King Fahd Road and the Northern Ring Road serve the district, and KAFD Metro Station is inside it, with the Yellow Line running to King Khalid International Airport. The station is a short walk from the towers, and the airport is less than a 30 minute drive away. The same King Fahd Road that runs along KAFD continues south to King Fahd District, and the King Fahd District postal code is 12271.
Schools and Hospitals
KAFD is a business district, so it has no schools of its own. King Saud University is a short drive away, and the hospitals of central Riyadh are a short drive south, toward Olaya.
