I am supposed to send this letter from Serbia to Canada, and I am not sure whether the address given is in the right format. Can you please tell me on example of a Jon Jones, how does a correct format of canadian address look like? My problem is that I am not sure where does the postal code go. He wrote it after Canada but that cant be right? Pls help :)

Postal code at the end is correct for Canada, I know they do it differently in some parts of Europe.

I think generally it goes



Name

Postal Code

Written Address (Street &#, City, Province, Country)



for example:



Jon Jones

H1J 2K3

100 Uberstreet, Supercity, Awesomeprovince, Canada.



At least, the postal system in Canada works in that general style, I'm not positive about Serbia though, sorry.
