The only issue I knew of, was that you had to have a return address and it could not be a PO box. Dale From: MoPo List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Vaughn K.

Re: [MOPO] New Mandatory Address Requirements for Canada
Thanks for sharing - be good if the Canadian Post Office let postal services around the world know about their latest requirements. Australia Post is just as bad. All international parcels have to have a sender ID sticker attached which has a specific number that IDs the sender based on the private info (such as a driver's licence). Don't use the sticker and the parcel can be delayed for a month from shipping while it sits somewhere here in Australia and they wait for it to blow up... and if it does, then gather together all the fragments of the 2" orange sticker, presumably.
