How do i have mail redirected

Redirecting mail can be a bit of a process, but I'll guide you through the steps. Here are the general procedures for redirecting mail:

Domestic Mail (Within the Same Country)

  1. Contact the Post Office: Visit your local post office or contact them by phone to request a mail forwarding service. They will need your current address and the address where you want the mail to be forwarded.
  2. Fill out the Form: You'll need to fill out a "Change of Address" form (PS Form 3575) with the post office. You can also download and print the form from the USPS website.
  3. Pay the Fee: There may be a small fee for the service, which varies depending on the country and the type of mail being forwarded.
  4. Wait for Confirmation: The post office will confirm the change of address and start forwarding your mail to the new address.

International Mail (Between Countries)

  1. Contact the Postal Service: Reach out to the postal service of your current country and the country where you want the mail to be forwarded. They will have specific procedures and forms for international mail forwarding.
  2. Fill out the Form: You'll need to fill out a form with the postal service, providing your current address, the address where you want the mail to be forwarded, and any other required information.
  3. Pay the Fee: There may be a fee for international mail forwarding, which varies depending on the countries involved and the type of mail being forwarded.
  4. Wait for Confirmation: The postal services will confirm the change of address and start forwarding your mail to the new address.

Online Services

Some online services, like USPS's "Change of Address" service, allow you to redirect your mail online. These services often require a fee and may have specific requirements for international mail forwarding.
