Addressed Admail Formatting
Each item in an Addressed Admail mailing must have the same size, shape, type of envelope and physical characteristics and originate from one sender. Only the thickness, weight and colour of the exterior covers may vary. Both the address of the addressee and return address printing and location must be in accordance with addressing specifications. If address labels are used, the address must be placed firmly on the envelope, plastic wrap, insert or card where it can be easily read. The address labels should be light in colour: white, pale yellow or beige. We use a high-quality glue on the labels so that they do not come off the item during mailing.
Addressed Admail Tips:
Return address(es) must be located either:- on the same side of the item as the delivery address, in the upper left-hand corner (preferred location); or
- on the back of the item, near the top edge and centered between the left and right edges.
Addressed Admail Formatting
The return address may vary, provided that either the physical return address or
the name of the person or business to which items are to be returned remains
constant on each item.
If a return address is used, it must be Canadian. Dual return addresses are also
acceptable on Addressed Admail items as long as there is one Canadian return
address. However, if either the Return to Sender or Address Correction service
option is requested, there must be only one return address
showing and it must be Canadian.
Addressing Standards
Every item in a mailing of Addressed Admail must be addressed to a specific
individual or to a company name or to a non-personalized descriptor including
Occupant or similar wording. Each item must include the complete address,
including the valid postal code for that address.
Markings
We may only use Canada Post authorized postal indicia, logos, trademarks,
or other markings under special Agreement with Canada Post. These markings
must appear on the front of the mail item in an area specified by Canada Post.
Designs likely to be mistaken for postage stamps, franking impressions, or service
labels are not permitted on the address side of Addressed Admail items. Preprinted
labels and endorsements must be directed to the addressee as an instruction related
to the enclosure, and cannot in any way imply special handling, speed of delivery
or other services by Canada Post.
Labels, endorsements and borders should not duplicate accepted and/or copyrighted
names used by Canada Post.
