The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out throu

29、gh ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collabora

30、tes closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval cr

31、iteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject

32、of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).Any trade nam

ISO 2017 All rights reserved vBS EN ISO 191604:2017ISO 19160-4:2017(E)IntroductionPostal service provides letter, package and parcel delivery on a global and universal basis, without the need for mailers and recipients to enter into explicit service contracts. Postal addresses, which co

36、mbine private recipient information with publicly known delivery point data, provide the mechanism through which mailers specify the intended recipient and the means by which the postal operator can fulfil its delivery commitment.Traditionally, postal operators have been highly flexible with regard

37、to the manner in which postal items can be addressed; any form and content of address was acceptable as long as it permitted sufficiently unambiguous determination of the delivery point. Even today, many posts pride themselves on their ability, using staff intelligence and local knowledge, to delive

38、r postal items carrying incomplete or unusual address representations.However, increasing volumes and labour cost rates long ago reached the point at which automation became not only economic, but essential. As a result, it has become more and more vital to ensure that the vast majority of postal it

39、ems are addressed in a way which can be processed automatically, without risk of misinterpretation.When mail is sent with addresses that are incorrect or incomplete, there is the possibility of undeliverable as addressed mail (UAA mail) which results in the mail being sent back to a return address,

40、being sent on to a forwarding address or discarded as waste. All this unnecessary work has negative economic consequences.Today, the vast majority of postal items carry printed addresses which are extracted from computer databases. Such databases need to be maintained in the face of population mobil

41、ity, creation and retirement of delivery points and changes in their specification, such as renaming of streets, renumbering of properties, etc. Moreover, there is a growing need for validation of addresses in e-commerce and the tendency for organizations to exchange or trade address data and for or

42、ganizations in one country to hold address data of organizations and individuals in other countries, which might use different approaches to the rendering of postal addresses.Addresses can be rendered according to rules that differ from country to country or from one mailing event (a batch of mail,

43、e.g. letters or monthly statements, sent by a mailer at one time) to another. This document does not impose any obligation on countries or mailers on how addresses shall be rendered but provides a language to express rendering rules recommended by postal operators for mailing purposes.Templates spec

44、ified according to this document may be used to exchange information about address rendering rules on international cross-border mail and domestic mail. These templates are available from the UPU for all countries which have approved them. This facilitates automated processing of mail and internatio

45、nal e-commerce deliveries. Rendition engines based on this document are expected to produce the same results for the same addresses. This is conditional upon using approved templates with the same parameters. Even if this were not the case, consistency remains an appropriate goal.The intended reader

46、s of this document include designers and developers of computer systems that process global postal address data including postal address rendering, those who formulate and implement international addressing policies and anyone seeking to reduce UAA mail.The preparatory work for this project is descr
