Addressing Military and Domestic Mail
Make sure you include the unit and box numbers for APO/FPO/DPO shipping addresses (if assigned). To prevent mail from entering foreign mail networks, do not include city or country names in APO/FPO/DPO shipping addresses.
Examples:
Army/Air Post Office (APO)
PFC JOHN DOE PSC 3 BOX 4120
APO AE 09021
Fleet Post Office (FPO)
SEAMAN JOSEPH SMITH

FPO AP 96691
Diplomatic Post Office (DPO)

Please note: We are not responsible for shipments once they have been delivered to the local USPS facility. Tracking information may not be available for shipments to APO/FPO boxes for security reasons. Shipments through the U.S. Military Post Office may have a longer transit time than is listed at checkout.
