Effective August 6, 2012, the Postal Service™ will revise Mailing Standards of the United States Postal Service, International Mail Manual (IMM®) to reflect a change in the Individual Country Listing (ICL) for Vietnam.
Currently, the ICL for Vietnam stipulates that, due to a trade embargo, the U.S. Department of Commerce limits the items that can be mailed to Vietnam. However, this embargo is no longer in place, so we will revise the IMM as noted below.
