USPS Mail Addressing Guidelines

When your mail has an accurate and complete address and ZIP Code, it speeds delivery and is more likely to reach the correct destination. The USPS diverts improperly addressed mail to a directory service for manual handling, which can slow delivery time significantly. Follow these guidelines to help ensure prompt delivery:

• Make sure all mail has a destination address and a return address:

  Destination Address
  Recipient’s Name
  Recipient’s Street Address
  Recipient’s City, State & ZIP Code

  Return Address
  Sender’s Name
  Sender’s Street Address
  Sender’s City, State & ZIP Code

• Place address in the proper block format: single-space the address block and use only one or two spaces between the character groups and between the state abbreviation and ZIP Code.
• Capitalize everything in the address.
• Eliminate punctuation.
• Use the correct two-letter state abbreviations.
• Use the correct ZIP Code.
• Type or machine-print all address information. Make sure print is clear and sharp.
• Ensure address characters do not touch or overlap.
• Make sure the street address where you want the mail delivered appears on the line immediately above the city, state, and ZIP Code line.
• Include floor, suite, and apartment numbers whenever possible. These should be placed on the same line as the street address.
• Place the city, state, and ZIP Code in that order on the last line. This must be the last line. Never place an “attention line,” telephone number, or other entries after the ZIP Code line. The “attention line” should be placed at the top.
• Do not abbreviate international addresses. Use the complete spelling of a foreign city, province, or country. Place the name of the country on the last line and use all capitals.
• When using window envelopes, the address must be visible through the window. Make sure the address insert fits the envelope to prevent shifting. Make sure the complete address is always visible, even if the insert moves. Try to keep 1/4” clearance between the address and the window edge.
• When addressing envelopes larger than regular letter-size envelopes, place the address to the right edge of the piece. It is no longer allowable or readable if centered. Never tape a letter envelope on the outside of a flat or package.

Common Problems to Avoid: address lines out of order, script typeface or handwriting, address not visible through window, address slanted, left margin not flush, nonaddress information below address line, characters touching, not enough contrast.

The number of the post office that serves this area is exactly the same as the postal code number. We can say that houses in the area served by the post office are assigned the number (zip code) of this office. nine0007

Post is a brilliant human invention. Previously, a letter to the Motherland or a letter from relatives was like a breath of fresh air for people who were forced to stay at a distance from each other. And today, a parcel, a registered letter or a parcel post – have not lost their popularity. But in order for the letter or parcel to reach the right place, it is necessary to correctly indicate the details of the addressee. As a rule, the sender knows the exact surname, name and patronymic of the person to whom he sends his letter. City, street and house number. But there are problems with the postal code. Not everyone knows how to find out the index by address. But this is a solvable task, especially with the resources of the Internet. nine0007

What is the zip code for?

A postal code is a numeric code assigned to a post office based on its address. This code is intended for sorting correspondence.

The word “index” is translated from Latin as “pointer, informer, indicator.” And the very concept of a postal code appeared in 1932 in the Soviet Union. Initially, it was a combination of two numbers and one letter, the first number meant the city, the letter in the middle was the country, and the last number was the post office. nine0007

The first indexation of post offices appeared in Kharkiv. Later, in 1962, Germany, following the example of the USSR, also began to introduce postal indexing, which then began to be used throughout the world. Later, in 1874, countries that have a postal indexing system formed the Universal Postal Union.

Application in different countries

Each state uses its own postal code format:

• In Russia, these are six digits, where the first three indicate the region, the other three indicate the specific post office. The country’s postal division corresponds to its administrative division; nine0022
• In the USA, the postal code consists of 9 digits, the first five indicate the city, town, district of the city, and the last 4 a specific zone;
• In France, the index consists of 5 digits, in other European countries the postal code is combined, it consists of letters and numbers, the first letter is the country code, the subsequent digits are the post office number, and then the name of the settlement follows;
• Santa Claus has his own separate postal code in different countries, for example, in Greenland “ 2412 “, in Korvatunturi “ 99999 “, in Canada “ SANTA “;
• In order to send a letter from one country to another, you need to know the postal code of a certain country, since there is no international format. Instead, a two-letter or three-letter country code is placed on the envelope. For example, “ RU ” or “ RUS ” for Russia.

A letter sent without specifying an index will not reach the addressee, but will be returned to the sender. Therefore, it must be indicated on the envelope.

However, this six-digit number is not always known, so one of the following actions can be performed to determine it:

1. Find out the index of interest at the nearest post office at the address;
2. Use the available Internet resources.

nine0015

The postal code of a certain city can be found from various Internet sources online, there are many resources:

• Official website of the Russian Post , address pochta.ru. It has an Index service. What should be done:
  1. Go to the site, click “Other Services”, a list will open in which select “Index”.
  2. You will see the tab “Index Search”, on this tab there will be an empty line for entering the address. nine0022
  3. On the left there is also an arrow icon that can independently determine your location using the navigator.
  4. Further, after entering, a window will appear below with the address and a six-digit number.
  5. The address must be entered in full, indicating the house number.

You should do the same if you need to find out the address by zip code, only now the entry line contains not the city and street, but a six-digit code. Next, the city, work schedule, department phone number and its location on the map appear on the screen; nine0007

• Website “Postal codes of Russia” , address https://indexp.ru/. The line indicates the name of the settlement or street without the letters “g.” or “st.” and the search engine issues the index of interest;
• https://ruspostindex.ru/. This service works on the same principle: you need to enter the name of the city, locality, street, after which it will display a list of all possible options found;

This is not a complete list of services that can help you find the index, there are a lot of them. But it is better to use the official website of the Russian Post, as the information on it is verified and constantly updated. nine0007

How does this ID help you work?

It simplifies the job of sorting correspondence. Until 2009, letters in Russia were sorted manually, but in November 2009 the first automated sorting center (ASC Russia) was opened.

1. The robot recognizes where the letter is to be delivered.
2. A conditional code is written on the envelope, and then they are sent to the mailboxes,
3. The operator manually takes out letters and sends them to destinations.

If the postal code is written incorrectly, its image will be displayed on the computer screen and the operator will manually enter the data.

That is why the index must be written in accordance with the code stamp, a special stencil for writing numbers on postal envelopes.
