Leveringsadresse

Leveringsadresse is the address to which goods are delivered in the context of commerce, logistics, and mail services. It is the destination used by carriers to physically deliver a shipment and can be different from the address used for billing or correspondence. The concept is common in e-commerce, retail shipping, and postal workflows, where the buyer may specify a preferred delivery location separate from other addresses.

Typical information associated with a leveringsadresse includes the recipient name, street address or post box, postal code, city, and country. Additional details may be provided to facilitate delivery, such as a phone number for the courier, delivery instructions (for example, gate codes, apartment numbers, or preferred entry points), and preferences for the delivery window or a specific drop-off point. In international shipments, the leveringsadresse must align with local postal and customs requirements and may influence duties and taxes.

Differences to related concepts are common. The leveringsadresse may be distinct from the invoicing or billing address, which is used for payment processing and financial records. Some carriers and retailers restrict deliveries to physical addresses and may not accept post boxes or certain secure locations. In several countries, the handling of leveringsadresse is subject to privacy and data protection rules, ensuring that personal delivery data is stored and processed lawfully.

In practice, the leveringsadresse is a key element in order entry, shipping labels, and carrier documentation, guiding the fulfillment process and informing the recipient about where the goods will arrive. See also invoicing address and delivery instructions.
