Canada Address Format

Canadian addresses look similar to US addresses, but postal-code format, province naming, and phone rules are different. The page should make those differences obvious.

Address format notes

  • Canadian addresses typically use house number, street, city, province, and postal code.
  • Canadian postal codes usually alternate letters and digits, such as A1A 1A1.
  • Province names are commonly written in full rather than as short abbreviations.

Region coverage

  • The current page covers Ontario, British Columbia, Quebec, and Alberta.
  • The details most often missed on Canada pages are postal-code formatting and full province names.
  • If you expand later, Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal are strong next cities to support.
