Ok, I need help addressing this box please.

[SnarphBlat]

I looked at the sticky, with the addressing picture. But mines a lot different. I'm so confused. It's probably something really simple. Just never done this before.

This is what it looks like...



Why are there more boxes for the zip and the "four". I am so confused.
There are a bunch of numbers, I feel lost.

Thanks!!

The zip and four should look something like "APO AE 12345-6789"

Just write out the address exactly as it was given to you. When I sent DH care packages, the address didn't go exactly as it was labeled on that box. Like I didn't put his rank on the second line like it says to.

Okay, should I just start from left to right and leave the boxes where it says "four" blank?

OH, so I am actually going to write APO AE?

OOHHH!!!! I got think I get it now....i think...i feel so dumb.

If it's an APO or FPO address, there should be a zip and four more. Also, you will write in the FPO or the APO and the AA, AE, or AP depending on which it is in the address you were given.

If you're trying to send it to a normal address, you're using the wrong box. Those are specifically for APO/FPO addresses.

Got, thanks! No, its the right address. I just saw all these numbers that he gave me and I got confused. :p Thanks!

I (or DF rather) don't have a "last four" so it's just "APO" "AE" and whatever the zip is.

[SnarphBlat]

Ah okay, thanks Evie! You ladies are awesome, I filled it out perfectly. Thanks to you!

The last four are easy to find.

For a PO box [obviously not applicable for APO/FPO], it's the last four of the box number.
For an APO/FPO box, for me it's always been the last four of the unit number.

But I don't think it's a big deal if you don't have it.

ETA: I crossed out "Rank" on the left and just started his address there, because I needed all the lines.

[ArtsyBelle]

Glad you got it!
