Mailing Address

How to write a mailing address having universal format?
  

Top answer

The address should be written in the way used in the country your letter/parcel is going to so that the local postman can read and understand it . For example, in the USA the number precedes the name of the street: 25 Main Street. In Scandinavia the name of the street precedes the number: Pääkatu 25, Vasagatan 56.
