Explains the proper formatting of international addresses on postal items, a critical aspect for ensuring successful delivery of QSL cards. It details how the country of origin dictates the destination country's name format, while the destination country's postal authority governs the remainder of the address. The resource highlights _Universal Postal Union_ (UPU) regulations, specifically Article RL 123.3.3, which mandates the use of roman letters and Arabic numerals for clarity. It provides practical examples, such as an item from Great Britain to the United Arab Emirates, illustrating the need for dual-language addressing.
