Translating an address for shipping

Hey guys,

I'm beating myself up trying to translate this to english in order to use canadian shipping to japan... could you help me out?

The address I'm trying to write in english is:

�§xxx-xxxx
–¼ŒÃ‰®Žs�º˜a‹æ•Ÿ�]x-x-xxƒiƒr”’‹àxxx

Any assistance would be really appreciated! :D

your address in english should be written:

Name Name
XXX-XXXX Aichi-ken
Nagoya-shi Showa-ku
Fukue X-X-XX-XXX
JAPAN

if all your information is on the "TO:" part (in english), the postoffice knows what to do, even if its in different order.

good luck.

While the letter would arrive if addressed as above, it's standard when writing an address in English to reverse the Japanese order and have smallest to largest (this is from Japan Post's guidelines).

So in this case,

xxx Navi Shirogane (could be Shirokane)
x-x-xx Fukue
Showa-ku
Nagoya xxx-xxxx

With large cities to write the name of the prefecture also is not really necessary, you can write Aichi ken if you like after Nagoya but you don't have to.
