The following enclaves/exclaves have post codes from two countries,
most also have two telephone area code prefixes:

Buesingen
Campione
Kleinwalsertal (3 different for the three towns)
Jungholz/Tirol
Morokulien
Llivia

With reference to the message below, the mail in Buesingen is handled
by the German post office... mail from outside that is addressed to
Buesingen using the Swiss code is delivered by the Swiss post office
in Schaffhausen to the Buesingen post office, which distributes it.

I don't have the list of numbers with me here in the office, but can
post them when I get home.

A number of military bases in Germany and Belgium also have two or
more postcodes and dialling prefixes, and a couple of them actually
have four or more postcodes from different countries. I also know of
one in Korea that as a British and US code, and a British code for
Washington DC, as well as some others of the UK, Belgium and some
other countries in southern Virginia.
