  1. Use the correct postal code: London's postal code is EC1 to EC4, WC1 to WC2, N1 to N22, NW1 to NW11, SW1 to SW20, SE1 to SE28, E1 to E20, and W1 to W14. You can use the Royal Mail's postcode finder tool to look up the correct postal code for a specific address.
  2. Use the correct format: The format for addressing mail to London is as follows:
    • Recipient's name
    • Street name and number
    • Postcode (London's postal code)
    • Country (if sending from outside the UK)
  3. Use the correct title: If the recipient is a company or organization, use the title "Company" or "Organisation" instead of "Mr./Ms./Mrs./Dr./etc."
  4. Use the correct address format for specific areas: For some areas in London, you may need to use a specific format. For example:
    • For addresses in the City of London (EC1 to EC4), use the format: "Company name", "Company address", "London EC1 1AA" (or other EC postcode).
    • For addresses in Westminster (SW1 to SW20), use the format: "Recipient's name", "House number", "Street name", "London SW1A 1AA" (or other SW postcode).
  5. Avoid using "London" as a separate line: You don't need to include "London" as a separate line in the address. It's already implied by the postcode.
  6. Use the correct font and handwriting: Use a clear, legible font and handwriting to ensure that the address is easily readable.
