Normalized address
What this tool does
This tool takes a street address and formats it into a clean, standard layout for mailing or data storage. It validates the input against external maps to confirm the location exists and adjusts the text to match local postal conventions.
It relies on an external mapping service to perform the check and formatting. This means results may not reflect very recent changes to street names or postcodes. Additionally, you must include details like the city and country for the best accuracy.
Common uses
- Preparing customer addresses for physical mail or shipping labels.
- Removing duplicates by identifying addresses that refer to the same location.
Good to know
- Include the city and country in the input for the best results.
- Special characters like accents are handled automatically.
