How to Format an Address for Mail to Denmark

Danish postal addresses follow a specific bottom-up format (per PostNord). Correct layout:

Recipient Name
Street Name + House Number [+ Floor + Door if applicable]
POSTCODE (4 digits) + CITY (in CAPS)
DENMARK (country name in English or French, on last line)

Concrete Example

Mette Hansen
Strandvejen 45, 2. th
2900 HELLERUP
DENMARK

Key Rules

• Postcode: 4 digits (e.g., 2900). No space.
• City: UPPERCASE. Danish characters (æ, ø, å) allowed but not required.
• Floor/Door: "1. th" = 1st floor, right (th = til højre); "tv" = left; "mf" = ground; "kl" = basement.
• No province/region line.
• Return address same format on back/top-left.

PostNord's address validator ensures deliverability.
