NOTE: Do not combine any of the above forms (e.g.,
inlemational plus APO/FPO addresses). This will only result in
confusion and possible delays in delivery. Mail sent to the
Department for delivery through its pouch system for posts with
APO/FPO addresses cannot be accepted and wOl be returned to
the sender.

The Military Post Service Agency (MPSA) is in the
process of aligning APO/FPO numbers, according to
geographic location, that became effective July 15,1991.
The APO/FPO and the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) will
provide service under both the old and new APO/FPO
numbers until July 15,1992.

Every person and organization overseas served by the
MPSA gets assigned a new address. For some, the change
includes a new ZIP Code, but for all, the structure of the
last two lines of the address changes. New York, San
Francisco, and Miami are no longer used with the ZIP
Code. AE, AP, and AA will be used. This change will
enable the MPSA mail to be processed on automated
equipment and will result in better mail service.
 

Use domestic postage.
Use international postage.
*Use street address only when P.O. box is not supplied.
