How to Address 国际邮件 & 包

A special note on U.S. military bases and embassies in other countries (APO/FPO/DPO Addresses)

APO/FPO/DPO mail going to U.S. military bases and embassies in other countries is special; you pay domestic prices, you use a different address format, and you’ll have to fill out a 通关单.

To prevent mail from entering foreign mail networks, do not include city or country names in APO/FPO/DPO shipping addresses. Make sure you include the unit and box numbers for APO/FPO/DPO shipping addresses (if assigned).

军事 Address Examples

Make Sure You’re Paying the Correct Postage:

• Make sure the weight is accurate: 使用 a kitchen scale or postal scale, or have your package weighed at the post office. Include the weight of everything, including packing materials.
• Round up on weights: Some 美国邮政总局 products round up to the ounce, while others round up to the pound. 例如, if you’re sending a 优先邮件 国际 package that weighs 5 lbs 2 oz, you would round up to the pound and pay the 6 lb-rate.
• 使用 the right shipping 十大网堵平台: 例如, First-Class Package 国际 十大网堵平台 can only be used for 包 up to 4 lbs (64 oz) and worth under $400.
• Check the dimensions. If you’re using your own packaging for 全球快递 保证, 尺寸重量 may apply, so always enter your package’s dimensions in the 国际 Postage Price Calculator to ensure you’re paying enough 邮资.
• 使用 the correct package label. Make sure the label you’re using matches the packaging. (例如, you can only use 优先邮件 labels on 优先邮件 国际 包.)

There are also new requirements for providing more-detailed descriptions of contents in 包 sent to countries that follow European Union (EU) customs rules. The receiving country may open and inspect your package, so you need to be accurate. You can see more information on our 海关表格页面.
