International mail format

The international mail format, also known as the Universal Postal Union (UPU) format, is a standardized format used for addressing international mail. It is used by postal services around the world to ensure that mail is delivered efficiently and accurately. Here is the general format:

Country Code: The two-letter country code is the first part of the address. This code is used to identify the country where the mail is being sent.

Recipient's Name: The recipient's name is written in the format "Last Name, First Name" (e.g. "Smith, John").

Address Line 1: The first address line is used to provide the street address, building number, or post office box number.

Address Line 2: The second address line is used to provide additional address information, such as an apartment number or a rural route number.

City: The city name is written in the local language, followed by the postal code (if applicable).

State/Province: The state or province name is written in the local language, if applicable.

Postal Code: The postal code is a series of numbers or letters that identify a specific geographic area.

Country Name: The country name is written in the local language, followed by the country code.

Here is an example of an international mail format:
