Documentation

Definition

City of residence which is different from the postal city

Use

In some countries, the residential city is required if it differs from the postal city.

In the USA, the official street indexes, against which data can be checked, are based on the residential city, not the postal city, which may be different.

It is the same in France, where a postally correct address must contain the residential city in a separate line above the postal city, if it differs from the postal city.

This exception applies to the following fields:
