Address Formats

Avoka provides 2 address format options:

Short format address (sometimes called standard 5 field address) is a very common address format used in systems of record and consists of the following fields:

  1. Address Line 1
  2. Address Line 2
  3. Locality
  4. State
  5. Postal Code

Long format address provides a more explicit breakdown of address components:

  1. Building Name
  2. Subdwelling
  3. Street Number
  4. Street Name
  5. Street Type
  6. Locality
  7. State
  8. Postal Code

Where practical we also provide the following additional fields:

  1. Country
  2. Country Code
  3. Full Address
  4. Lookup Key
  5. Postal Flag

Address Field Definitions

FieldDescription
Address Line 1
(short format only)
This will be the first of 2 address lines. The contents of this element will depend on the existence of a building name or subdwelling where a subdwelling could be a unit/flat/shop/suite number or a level/floor number. If any of these elements exist then this field will contain these sub-location elements in the following order:

[buildingName] [floor/level] [unit/flat/shop/suite]

If none of these sub-location elements exist then this field will contain:

[streetNumber] [streetName] [streetType]

Address Line 2
(short format only)
This will be the second of 2 address lines and will be blank unless addressLine1 contains sub-location elements, in which case the addressLine2 will contain:

[streetNumber] [streetName] [streetType]

Building Name
(long format only)
Occasionally physical addresses include the name of the building they are located within. For example, performing a lookup for 34/267-277 CASTLEREAGH ST will return a building name of MUSEUM TOWERS.
Subdwelling
(long format only)
The subdwelling value will contain floor/level identifiers and/or unit/flat/shop/suite identifiers.
Street Number
(long format only)
For physical addresses this value will contain the street number of the address which does not include the unit or flat number, but may be represented as a range (e.g. 267-277). For non-physical addresses this field will contain the PO Box, Locked Bag, or similar data.
Street Name
(long format only)
Where practical, this field will contain the name of the street only, with street type being provided separately (see below).
Street Type
(long format only)
The street type value may be provided as an expanded value (e.g. ROAD) or abbreviation (e.g. RD), depending on the lookup service response data.
Locality The locality information varies from country to country but will usually be either suburb or city.
State The State that the address resides in. For some countries (e.g. New Zealand) this may be blank.
Postal Code The regional postal code, also referred to as Zip Code (US) and Postcode.
Country The Country that the address is located within, in its expanded form (e.g. Australia).
Country Code Where practical, the Country code will be provided as represented in the ISO 2 character (e.g. AU) or 3 character (e.g. AUS) standards, depending on the data provided by the lookup service.
Postal Flag The postal flag field indicates whether this address is a non-physical address (e.g. PO Box, Locked Bag etc...). Most address lookup providers support the ability to exclude non-physical addresses from lookup searches if required.
Full Address The intention of this field is to provide the full address with the exclusion of Country, as a single one line string. For example:

MUSEUM TOWERS U 34 267-277 CASTLEREAGH ST SYDNEY NSW 2000

Lookup Key This field represents a unique identifier for the address in the 3rd party system and will be different for each provider.
