Formatting military addresses

Here's an example of a properly formatted military address:

Stede Bonnet
​Unit 1 Box 1000
​APO, AE 09898

Shipping From Military Addresses: If you're shipping from a military address, this same formatting above applies to creating your Ship From Address 👍

Filling out customs forms

Military Addresses Require Customs Forms: Whether you're shipping to or from a military address, USPS requires you to fill out customs forms for these shipments, since packages travel on international flights to reach their destinations.

So, make sure to fill out the customs form when creating the shipment in Pirate Ship, and be as detailed as possible about what you're sending 😉

Harmonization Codes Required: When filling out your customs form, you'll also need to include the harmonization number for your item(s), no matter where the military base you're shipping to is located.

Customs Forms Included on Labels: Once you enter all the necessary info, your label will then be printed with the customs form included!

Note: if you are using a Saved Package when creating your label, you'll need to click Modify Package to be able to fill out the customs form!
