  1. Why do I need INTL address validation It is difficult, without having local knowledge, to understand the addressing nuances of each country. Different countries have different address formats. Address formats change on occasion. Customers don’t consistently input addresses in the correct format. INTL addressing is HARD. Language can be a barrier. Smarty handles all of that! ● ● ● ● ● ● ●

  2. What exactly is International Address Validation Address validation by itself regardless of whether it is specific to one country or for the entire world is the process of taking in an input address and normalizing it to where we can understand the concepts of that address and then matching that address to a known address in a specific country. ● Different countries have different address formats. In order to manage all the address information, you’ll benefit from having a standardized address. ●
