I'm giving someone a laptop, and this is the only address they gave me. do I need to add Australia or something at the end?
Please, if you have info, let me know. I don't want it returned because I didn't put enough info on the box.

I don't think a lot people in American post offices know what the adresses look like in Australia. You always add the country.

the people at this post office haven't probably had to deal with mail farther away than the next county, so that's why I was asking for info.
Thanks to you and all!
