There are two types of announcement cards:

Complimentary move announcement cards

We offer complimentary move announcement cards at post offices to notify correspondents of a new address. You must apply the applicable postage.

Notice of new address

We offer notice of new address cards for municipality-initiated and for Canada Post-initiated changes.

These changes include:

• Street name change
• Street number change
• Conversion from rural route addressing to civic addressing

We’ll give 12 months of free Mail Forwarding service and a limited quantity of postage-paid courtesy cards - Notice of New Address (33-086-450). You can get these cards at the post office.
