The international addressing services standardize and validate addresses using postal authority address data. This service can correct information and format the address using the format preferred by the applicable postal authority. It also adds missing postal information, such as postal codes, city names, state/province names, and more.

The services return result indicators about validation attempts, such as whether or not the service validated the address, the reason for failure if the address could not be validated, and more.

During address matching and standardization, the services separate address lines into components and compare them to the contents of the addressing databases. If a match is found, the input address is standardized to the database information. If no database match is found, the service optionally formats the input addresses. The formatting process attempts to structure the address lines according to the conventions of the appropriate postal authority.

There are three levels of service that vary by price, features provided, and the number of address sources used to validate the address.

The services are as follows:
  1. ValidateMailingAddress (Basic)
  2. ValidateMailingAddressPro
  3. ValidateMailingAddressPremium
  4. ValidateAddressInternational (renewal only)
