Mongolia Address Format
Mongolian domestic addresses are written from the largest unit to the smallest: province/capital name with the 5-digit postcode to its right, then district (duureg) + sub-district (khoroo) in the capital or sum/bagh in rural areas, then street + premises, with the recipient last. For international mail the UPU format places the addressee first (small-to-large); both orders are seen and accepted.
