However, there are some exceptions and considerations:
* If the recipient requires a specific location for the reference: Always follow the instructions provided by the recipient. They might have a preferred location, such as below the recipient address or in a designated field.
* If the reference is lengthy: You might need to move it to a separate line or even to the back of the envelope, depending on the size and layout.
* If you are using a specific type of envelope: Some envelopes, such as window envelopes, might have dedicated areas for references. Make sure to check the design and instructions.
Here's an example of how to write a reference on an envelope:
[Your Return Address]
[City, State, Zip Code]
[Reference]
[Recipient Name]
[Recipient Address]
[City, State, Zip Code]
By following these guidelines, you can ensure your reference is clearly visible and helps to identify the purpose of your mail.
