  1. Building - If the building the address is in has a name, this is where it goes.
  2. Street and premise - The building or unit number comes after the street.
  3. Dependent locality - Local area or neighborhood if applicable.
  4. City - The city goes all alone.
  5. Country - This can be shortened to CUW.
