Spain mailing address
Spain has a complex postal system, and the mailing address format may vary depending on the region and type of mail. However, here is a general format for a mailing address in Spain:
Format:
[Recipient's Name] [Street Address or PO Box] [City or Town] [Province or Autonomous Community] [Postal Code] [Country]
Example:
Señor Juan Pérez Calle de la Reina, 12 Madrid Madrid 28004 España
Notes:
- The recipient's name should be written in the format "Last Name, First Name" (e.g., Pérez, Juan).
- The street address or PO box should be written in the format "Street Name, Number" (e.g., Calle de la Reina, 12).
- The city or town should be written in the format "City/Town Name" (e.g., Madrid).
- The province or autonomous community should be written in the format "Province/Autonomous Community Name" (e.g., Madrid).
- The postal code should be written in the format "XXXXX" (e.g., 28004).
- The country should be written as "España" (Spain).
Additional tips:
- Make sure to use the correct postal code for the recipient's location. You can find the postal code for a specific address on the Correos website or by contacting the local post office.
- If you are sending mail to a business, you may need to include the company name and address in addition to the recipient's name and address.
- If you are sending mail to a rural area, you may need to use a PO box address instead of a street address.
- It's a good idea to include a return address on the envelope in case the mail is undeliverable.
