Jersey address formats & examples

Between England and France is the British crown dependency island of Jersey. Let's get a couple of things out of the way to add clarification: Yes, Jersey cows originated on the Island of Jersey. No, the Jersey shrub didn’t originate in Jersey.

But if you're going to ship a cow or a shrub to Jersey, you'll need to ensure you have the right Jersey address format.
