The data is complete in the sense that it contains the list of zip codes for the country. Howerver, there is no coordinates or georeferenced data related to each zip code and therefore is does no comply with the definition of the location dataset (ZIP+GEO)

The list of zipcodes is available in PDF.

Reviewer comments

The data is not geocoded. Due to the level of aggregation for Asuncion, geo-referencing the information is not a simple task. For the rest of the country, I was unable to find official admin boundaries that would allow an attribute join.
