Despite the cost, sending a postcard internationally can be a great way to stay in touch with friends and relatives when you're thousands of miles away. However, it's important to remember that you must send the postcard in the proper format. Getting it wrong can result in unnecessary loss.

You'll need to fill out a customs form if you're sending 16 ounces or more of international mail. This can be done at your local post office or a foreign postal service. When you do, you'll need to include your mailing address, the return address, and the recipient's name in English.
Several countries use different formats for addresses. The USPS has a convenient rate calculator online that helps you calculate the price of postage. You can input the number of postcards you're planning to send, and the calculator will provide the cost of postage.
You'll also need to ensure that your postcards meet the requirements of the Universal Postal Union. The size and shape of the postcards are essential. You'll also want to make sure that the postcards are made of a stiff, light-colored paper. If the cards are too flimsy, they won't be accepted by the postal service.
You'll also need to include the recipient's name in the mailpiece. You'll write this in the top left corner. You'll also need to include the zip code of the recipient's home. The postal code should be written in uppercase Roman letters. You'll also need to write the city in Arabic numerals.
