I'm willing to admit defeat - I have to mail a package to Serbia and cannot figure out the label, lol.

Olge Petrov 22, Beograd, Borca, 11211, Serbia

I have narrowed down that Olge Petrov 22 is the street address

Borca is the city/town in Serbia

Serbia is the country

11211 is the zip code



Which leaves me with Beograd. I cannot find ANYTHING - any google search corrects me to "Belgrade" which obviously isn't correct. I have had the recipient confirm the address twice already.


Any help?!?!?! :banghead:  :banghead:

It's not though. He was very specific in the "Beograd"

I agree with Junglepete, Beograd/Belgrade is essentially the same city.

From Wikipedia:
Belgrade (/'b?lgre?d/ BEL-grayd; Serbian: Beograd / ???????, meaning "White city", Serbian pronunciation: [beograd] (About this sound listen); names in other languages) is the capital and largest city of Serbia.

Just looked it up on Google Maps and I see the dude's front door.  Borca looks like a northern burb of Belgrade.

I would address it:

Olge Petrov 22
Beograd, Borca
11211, Serbia

I've had to do plenty of Int'l shipping as part of my last job and was the one working with customs and clearing issues.  Here is a really handy site through USPS which helps shippers: https://pe.usps.com/text/imm/ps_025.htm

Good ol' Wiki, that makes more sense now.
