What are the ID requirements for additional recipients and users?

What types of ID's are required by USPS for Form 1583

Updated this week

For additional users, there is no requirement for Form 1583 so they don't need any ID's.

For additional recipients, i.e. people/company names for whom we receive mail, the requirements are as follows:

Individual Names: USPS requires 2 forms of ID to complete the Form 1583. One must be a photo ID and the second an Address ID. Minors will be listed on the parent's 1583 form and need only 1 ID.

  • At least one ID must be a government-issued photo ID

  • ID's lacking both a photo and address are not acceptable.

Businesses Names

These do not need any IDs but a 1583 form is required. We pre-fill this form for you during onboarding.
