Melissa Data, a developer of mailing technology systems, has published The Melissa Data Guide to International Address Formats. The guide offers a single source of information about international addressing for more than 140 countries and territories, including examples of postal code and address formats. According to Melissa Data, the resource will help companies to save money on international postage, decrease delivery times due to inaccurate address formats, and reduce undeliverable mail. The guide can help international businesses that want to develop Web forms, build global databases, enhance customer-relationship management programs and improve data quality, the vendor said. Free updates are provided online so that companies can keep pace with postal changes that affect the delivery of international mail.
