    go to this site

    chouse Ростовская ОбластьЮЮРостов на дону г.>>the street you are going to send your letters.

    then chouse Санкт Петербург and then make there the same - chouse the street from the adress you have.

    In Russia you write the country first, then the city, street and number

    344111 Russia, Rostov-na-Donu, Ul. Kraevedcheskaja, 13, Legion of the Dead (or whatever it is)

    The international snail mail adress must be written in such an order (I believe)
    Legion Fighting Team
    house 13, Kraevedcheskaya street,
    Rostov-na-Donu
    344111 RUSSIA

    Or write in Russian:
    КОМУ: Legion Fighting Team
    КУДА: ДОМ 13, УЛИЦА КРАЕВЕДЧЕСКАЯ,
    ГОРОД РОСТОВ-НА-ДОНУ
    344111
    РОССИЯ
    Я так думаю.

    JESUS CHRIST HOW CAN I?
    WHEN I GET THE MAILS FROM THE ABROAD IT LOOKS LIKE:
    DEAR Mr. LEOF LEOFSSON
    FLAT XX
    HOUSE X\X, HIDDENTINY LANE,
    MOSCOW XXXXXX
    RUSSIA

    There! If you write to Russia from EU or USA you must write the house first and then the lane.
    Я так думаю.

    I do that as well, but... why? Once you write RUSSIA on the envelope, it's up to the Russian postal service to find the correct address, not to a postman from EU...

    Yep/ But before its arrival at Russian postal services it has to be sent via local (English, American, German) postal services. Imagine if you sent the envelop or the parcel to Russia from England with the Russian poststamps sticked on it , the adress written in Russian and the description written in Russian too.

    But for the American or European postal service all that is needed is a big, capitalized RUSSIA/RUSSLAND/VEN

    yes and that is an international mail custom. I think there are some rules.
    You wrote RUSSIA, but to send it to the reciever the British Royal Post has to load the data about this mail, besides something can turn wrong, the bag can be lost or the transport damaged - the information on the letter must be readable for the locals.
    Otherwise we call it - "на деревню к дедушке" - it's about the letters adressed to nowhere.
    Я так думаю.

    But I write only RUSSIA in Latin alphabet, the rest of the address in cyrillic letters, and I'm sure the British Royal Post or any other post in Europe don't write any data in cyrillic or try to transliterate it. They are only interested in that "RUSSIA", it's in Russia that the rest of the data is important.

    I'm talking about normal letters and postcards now, a pack or an insured or registered letter is probably different.

    Know you what, the post cards which had been sent to Moscow from Eroupe in 1910 hve the same adresses: Russia, Moscow and then everything in Russian.
    But English is the international language of comunication, so this has to be a reason. I doubt that Amazon could send anything to Russia if you would have filled the order forms in Russian and told them - fellows, you have just write Russia. Moscow and then copy\paste all these weird slavic signs I wrote bellow - and everything will go all right.

    You simply must write the adress in English and in order which is used for all international postal services.

    (Does it have any sense?)

    Let's agree to disagree - at least for letters (and postcards). I understand that if you have an electronic form to fill for Amazon, it is better to use Latin, because they, the sender, don't know cyrillic. The problem is in them, Amazon, not in the Postal service of the USA. But as long as I am the sender, and I write the correct address in cyrillic, the postal service is very happy, and RUSSIA is enough (well, I don't know if ST. PETERSBURG or САНКТ ПЕТЕРБУРГ may be helpful too). Postal service in the States doesn't care if the letter is for Кубинская or Пушкинская улица.

    Kudos to Russian postal services. They are slow! But a letter I wanted to send to Будапештская ул., I wrote Букарестская (or something similar), but it arrived to the correct address the same.

    What this everyone's favorite "kudos" is?
    That's good that the Russian letters work.
    Russian postal servise is a one big trouble. The post workers' salary is too low and they all are biased and fury - they even are not embarrased of the bribery - they openly demand it from you refusing do the usal sending process. The only normal workers I know are on the International terminal, but it locates miles from me. And it is slow - devilish slow! I live between the local post custom office and our post offise. Both buildings are as far as ten minutes of walk from my door. One of my parcels had been lost for two weeks in the custom and then when I turned the mountains of sh!t and forced them to find it, my parcel eventually arrived only for two weeks later in the local post office. Duh!
