The official list of post codes has the values for all administrative divisions (region, ward, villages).

The official administrative boundaries are freely available from the National Bureau of Statistics(NBS) at ward level. https://www.nbs.go.tz/nbs/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=526:shapefiles&catid=117:shapefiles
