How to write an Belarusian address

You may have seen photos of some of the beautiful Baroque and Renaissance castles that are in Belarus, but have you ever written a letter to one? To do that you'd need to know how to address a letter to Belarus, which means you also need to know Belarus’s address format. Here, we've given you a Belarusian address example to follow step by step. Because we think you’re cool, we also decided to give you tools to help validate any address in the world.

Smarty is the best source for worldwide location data. It’s easy to get Belarusian addresses formatted, standardized, and validated with our world-class, cloud-based APIs and products. Back to what you came for, address formatting in Belarus can be written out as follows:

  1. Addressee line - Using appropriate titles for the region, first put the recipient’s name.
  2. Street and building number - This feels familiar; list one after the other, first street name, then building number, and leave those commas outta there!
  3. Postal code - The postal code gets its own line
  4. City - The city the address is in.
  5. Administrative area - The region the address is in
  6. Country - This is often abbreviated to BLR.
