Hi!
I want to send a request to Hungary. I live in the USA. Do I have to do anything special to my envelope or anything, when sending over seas???

Thanks!
Sara

Please help somebody!! this is ergent!!!

Not really, but it wouldn't hurt to write "AIRMAIL / PAR AVION" on the SASE, to ensure that it returns to you via Airmail.

Other than that, just make sure you have the right amount of postage and the correct address format.

Ok. So postage is the same and everything?? And why is it important to write airmail?? What does it mean??

Postage costs more to send internationally than it does domestically, you can check prices here: http://www.usps.com/prices/first-class- ... prices.htm
You'll also need to use Hungarian stamps or IRCs for the SASE.

Writing "AIRMAIL / PAR AVION" just instructs their postal service that it should be sent via Airmail. Otherwise, they might send it using surface mail (by boat) instead. It isn't that important, since most countries probably default to Airmail, and some countries don't even use surface mail, but it doesn't hurt to add it as a just-in-case.

Im sending in the envelope a LOR and SASE how much postage would I need????

$0.98 if it's a small envelope (under 6-1/8 by 11-1/2), $1.24 if it's larger than that. I don't know what return postage would be as I'm unfamiliar with Hungarian mail.

Im sending it in a 9x12 envelope. It sounds like pretty much the same internation as national.....thanks for all your help! I sent you a message. So then would I put 3 forever stamps on the 9x12 when sending to hungary??? just trying to verify.

It's $0.88 domestically, a forty cents difference.

Yep, 3 Forever stamps will cover it.

ok thanks so much!!
