Mongolian postal service adopts new national addressing system.
Mongolian postal service adopts new national addressing system. Mongolia’s national postal service, Mongol Post, has adopted a new addressing platform for deliveries to customers across the country that will become integral to its services and a part of the infrastructure that will help drive the country’s economic development. The new addressing system is an easy-to-use, accurate address for every 3m x 3m square in the world and will enable Mongol Post to provide a better postal service across the entire country, which measures nearly the size of the European Union. Owing to the country’s vast, sparsely populated landscape, many citizens currently have to collect mail from post office boxes dozens of miles from their homes. Others have no access to postal services or deliveries. Mongol Post is the country’s largest postal service provider, with 900 employees serving more than three million citizens, 30% of whom are nomadic, roaming an area of more than 1.5 million square kilometers. The what3words location reference system is available as a mobile app or API integration and works both online and offline. Mongol Post customers will be able to discover any three-word address using the free app, and simply write it on an envelope or enter it on the checkout page of a shopping website. Every citizen now has an address, whether they live in rural areas, the Ger districts or the center of Ulaanbaatar.
