Proposed New Standards for Intelligent Mail Barcodes

Today the Federal Register published our proposal [PDF] | [HTML] for the use of Intelligent Mail barcodes on automation mailings of letters and flats, which we published online on usps.com April 16. The proposal includes revised mailing standards. 

We encourage mailers to review and comment by May 30 by writing to the Manager of Mailing Standards, U.S. Postal Service, 475 L'Enfant Plaza SW, Room 3436, Washington DC 20260-3436, or via e-mail to IMB&EDOC@usps.gov.
