This ZIP doesn't have boundaries of its own. Instead, it sits within the larger 96813 ZIP code area. That's typical for PO Box ZIPs in urban cores where the boxes serve a concentrated business district. The setup means companies can maintain a downtown Honolulu mailing address through their PO Box while the surrounding blocks get street delivery under a different ZIP code.
The single street name reveals this ZIP's commercial focus. Merchant Street has historically been downtown Honolulu's financial and business corridor, and the multi-unit delivery structure (suites, floors) confirms this ZIP serves office buildings rather than residential areas.
ZIP Code 96812 supports both business and residential activity. According to the Business Census (2024), there are 6 business establishments, employing about 169 people with an annual payroll of $14,698,000.
