Myanmar Address Format

Myanmar addresses follow the British-influenced smallest-to-largest order: recipient, house number + street, ward or township, then town and 5-digit postal code on one line, then the country. States and regions are normally identified by the postal code and are not written as a separate line. Limited public documentation: outside Yangon and Mandalay many streets are unnamed, so ward/village + township + town carries the address.
