New Members CodyP23 Posted December 24, 2022 at 08:12 AM New Members Report Posted December 24, 2022 at 08:12 AM Hello, I have some items to return to China, but I am not certain that I understand the Chinese address provided. Could someone help me standardize this? I just want to make sure I get the city and province correct. I removed Name, Floor Number and Building Number. Thank you.

So that's what they have given you here. Country = China = 中国 Province (similar to a state in the US) = Guangdong Sheng = Guangdong Province = 广东省 City = Huizhou Shi = Huizhou City = 惠州市 District or quarter in that city = Huiyang Qu = Huiyang District = 惠阳区 (Chinese cities are often very spread out, so the district becomes very important.) And so on, continuing to the street, name of the building, floor, office number, name of the company, name of the person in that company to whom you are sending the parcel if you have been supplied with that. The 516200 is a postal code, similar to a US Zip code. It's also customary to put the phone number of the person (or company) to whom you are sending the parcel on the outside as part of the address, so the post office can call them if something is unclear or if there is a problem. 1 Quote
