Yes, Drip sellers can ship to APO, FPO, and DPO addresses! If you're a buyer stationed overseas with the U.S. military or diplomatic service, you can absolutely place an order on Drip and have it delivered to your APO address.

This guide explains what APO addresses are, how to enter them correctly at checkout, and what to expect with your shipment.

What Is an APO, FPO, or DPO Address?

These addresses are used to send mail to U.S. military members and diplomats overseas:

  • APO – Army Post Office (used by the U.S. Army and Air Force)

  • FPO – Fleet Post Office (used by the Navy and Marines)

  • DPO – Diplomatic Post Office (used by U.S. embassies and diplomatic posts)

These addresses are treated as U.S. domestic addresses by USPS, but they do require customs forms.

Example APO address format:

Recipient Name Unit #### Box #### APO AE 09350 United States

How to Enter an APO Address at Checkout

When checking out on Drip, enter your APO, FPO, or DPO address using the following format:

  1. Name: Enter your full name and rank (if applicable)

  2. Address Line 1: Enter your Unit number and Box number

  3. City: Enter APO, FPO, or DPO (as applicable)

  4. State: Select:

    • AE for Armed Forces Europe, Middle East, Africa, and Canada

    • AP for Armed Forces Pacific

    • AA for Armed Forces Americas

  5. ZIP Code: Enter the 5-digit military ZIP code (e.g., 09350)

  6. Country: Select United States

💡 Do not list the country you’re physically stationed in (like Germany or Japan). Always select “United States” as the destination country.

What to Expect After You Order

  • Shipping Times: APO shipments may take longer than standard U.S. domestic shipping due to military transport logistics. Delivery time varies based on location.

  • Tracking Info: Once your order is shipped, you’ll receive tracking information so you can monitor the delivery progress.

  • Customs Forms: Sellers are responsible for completing the customs declaration. You do not need to do anything extra as a buyer.

If your order experiences any issues or delays, reach out to the seller directly through your Drip order page
