Which manual would you consult for guidance on international mail procedures?

• B. Handbooks
• C. International Mail Manual

Answer: (C)

International mail procedures are governed by the International Mail Manual. This official USPS guide covers how to prepare international mail, required customs declarations, prohibited and restricted items, and the available service options for international shipments. Other manuals focus on different areas—Administrative Support Manual handles internal policies, Handbooks are general references, and the Postal Operations Manual concentrates on day-to-day, domestic operations. So for guidance on international shipments, the International Mail Manual is the right source.
