OK this might appear dumb but I want to clarify it.

Take the following information as an example:

Apt 123 & 567 Geoexpat Street . In other words the apt is located at 567 Geoexpat Street

Now do I adresss my letter as follows: Apt. 123, 567 Geoexpat Street

or is it 567 Geoexpat Street, Apt. 123 (like it is done in N. America)?

[KnowItAll]

>> Apt. 123, 567 Geoexpat Street

That ..

Thanks. Guess its like which side of the road to drive on. Left or right?

...or driving on the parkway, parking on the driveway, driving on the pavement (i.e. sidewalk, mowing down pedestrians).

Difference is, HK Post is flexible enough to deliver either way.

cerebrus... i've never addressed anything like that...it sounds awfully chinese to me...


i would address stuff as follows:

flat #, block #
building name
street # & name
district
HK

Here is how I'd do it

Mr So and So
1121 Come In Building
14 Kingy Road
North Point
Hong Kong

[carang]

or...

mr. joe black
flat B, 4/f, Blk 10
laguna city,
kwun tong, KLN
Hong kong

or

miss jane smith
flat 2, 39/f
good luck building
34 percival street
causeway bay,
Hong kong

I think cerberus's method is correct if you write it in Chinese.

The Chinese sequence it's just the opposite than our standard.
They start in a more obvious way. From the general to the small detail.
So,
Hong Kong, Kowloon, Yaumatei, Nathan Road 666, block 1, 4th fl., flat 402, Mr. Geo Expat.

At least in Mainland this is the order and I guess in HK too.
