How To Complete USPS Form 1583



Completing Form 1583

We understand that Form 1583 can be confusing mostly to our International Clients, so here is our guide to completing USPS Form 1583 to activate USPS mailbox:
We list the following information that you need to fill out here. Most are self explanatory.
Box 2: Your full name that this mailbox will be receiving for.

Box 3: Your mailbox address, including the mailbox number that you chose when you signed up with us.

Box 5: Sign this to authorize us to receive restricted delivery mail on your behalf.

Boxes 6-7: The person who is applying for this mailbox. Normally, this is the same as the person who is receiving mail for this mailbox. Be sure to include a phone number where you can be reached.

Box 8: Write down the two IDs that you will use to proof your identity and the ID numbers. One of them must have a photo of you. A list of acceptable IDs are listed at the end of this article.

Box 16: Sign this form.


Optional Business Information
If you are linking a business to your mailbox, fill out Boxes 9-14. Most boxes are self-explanatory except for a few that are clarified below:
Boxes 10a-10e: Your business contact information. You may use your business mailing address or registered agent address as well. Use your home address if it’s a home business. This information is only for us and USPS and is not available to others.

Box 11: What services your business provides, such as “Market Research”, “Consumer Products”, “Clothing”, etc.

Box 12: You can enter each member or employee that will receive mail here. Although names must have verifiable identification, we do not require you to provide separate Form 1583 for each employee unless requested by us.
If you live overseas, you may have difficulty finding a notary. Banks normally provide notary service as well as embassies. US and Non-US notary seals are accepted. If this is not possible, you can also go through a lawyer or a bank official who can sign or stamp an official seal on the form. Government seals are also acceptable. Neighborhood Parcel (Getmyusmail.com) can help Notarize your form 1583, you simply send us two government issued photo IDs and we can complete the form and Notarize it for you.
