- Street and premise and sub-building - The street name comes first, followed by the building or unit number, followed by the specific part of the building (e.g., apartment, suite), and all go on the same line.
- **Dependent locality **- Local area or neighborhood, if applicable.
- Postal code and city - Postal code followed by the city on the same line.
- Country - You can speed up your addressing time by shortening the country name to its code: ALA.
