With the development of global trade, more and more Russians are ordering goods from abroad. However, even the most reliable international delivery can be a problem if the address is incorrect. Incorrect data may cause a refund, delay, or complete loss of the parcel. In this article, we will look at how to arrange an international shipping address correctly and avoid common mistakes.
An address is a key element of any delivery. Its exact indication is necessary for the correct operation of logistics and customs services. Although there may be differences in different countries, there is a universal structure: the recipient's name, the street with the house and apartment number, the city, the zip code and the destination country. Additionally, you can add explanations, for example, about the entrance to the building.
One of the most common mistakes is using the Cyrillic alphabet. For international shipments, it is necessary to indicate the data in Latin letters. They also often forget about the postal code or confuse it. It is equally important to spell the recipient's name correctly: typos can create difficulties during delivery.
If the delivery is carried out to a company, it is especially important to specify the organization correctly so that the parcel does not get lost in the office flow. It is also worth using the standard address forms adopted in international practice — this will facilitate the processing of information by logistics systems.
Additionally, it is recommended to provide contact information: phone number and email address. This will help if you need clarification or adjustments during delivery.
Alexandra Petrova, CEO of the Telega Company, emphasizes that successful delivery begins with the correct address.: "We see a lot of situations where a customer loses a product due to a single mistake. Following simple rules allows you to avoid this and make international shopping really convenient."
Thus, the registration of an address is not just a formality, but an important part of the delivery process. Attention to detail allows you not only to avoid problems, but also speeds up the receipt of the order.
