Advice on correct formatting of addresses:
-
The address starts with the most specific information (name or company name)
and ends with the most general (country of destination);
Each line should contain a maximum of 40 characters, including spaces;
It is recommended no punctuation be used unless it is part of a proper name.
Locality names and the name of the country in each address must be printed in upper
case. Postal codes must also be printed in uppercase with the first three characters
separated from the last four by one space.
Personal postcodes covering a particular area are also in use in Malta. These codes
may not follow the same format.
