Which address is used for labeling after standardization?

• A. Raw envelope address
• B. AMS database address
• C. Processed envelope address
• D. The original entrance address

Answer: (C)

Standardization creates a consistent, machine-readable version of the recipient’s address. The label printed after this step should use that cleaned, processed envelope address because it ensures reliable routing and sorting by mail systems. The raw address often contains typos, abbreviations, or formatting that can cause misdelivery. A database record might be consulted for verification, but the actual label uses the processed envelope address, not the original or raw form. The original entrance address isn’t used once standardization has occurred.
