Standardize Addresses to USPS Format Automatically

The Address Standardizer normalizes any address to USPS Publication 28 format, splits it into structured fields (street, city, state, ZIP), and flags invalid or incomplete entries. Essential for compliance reporting, direct mail, and loan processing.

What It Does

Address standardization is the process of normalizing mailing addresses to a consistent, USPS-compliant format. BackOffice Scripts' Address Standardizer takes raw address strings and outputs structured fields — standardized_address, street, city, state, zip — along with validity flags and issue descriptions. This standardization is required for HMDA LAR filing, USPS-compliant direct mail, rate territory assignment in insurance, and accurate geocoding for flood zone and property tax lookups.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it verify that the address actually exists?

It validates format, structure, and completeness. It normalizes to USPS standards and flags obvious issues. For full deliverability verification, pair with a CASS-certified service.

What common issues does it detect?

Missing ZIP codes, invalid state abbreviations, missing unit numbers, PO Box format errors, and non-standard abbreviations. Issues are listed in the address_issues column.

Can it handle international addresses?

Currently optimized for US addresses. International address support is planned for a future release.

What's the cost?

2 credits per record (due to the complexity of address parsing). Available with any paid credit pack.
