Laceman1 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 There are weight restrictions depending upon the status of the person receiving the packages. Retirees with an APO address are limited to 16 oz, except for medications. Active duty and civilians working for U.S. have a much higher weight limit. I have sent a case of syrup and a case of orange soda to an APO address from the states before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanyaburi Mac Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 I've mailed a few things to foreign APOs before, specifically in Iraq and Afghanistan, small items, more for a joke than anything else. Once sent some P-38 can openers. Note that the package goes first to the States where it enters the U.S. mail system then the APO system, NY, or where ever. Does take some time but seems to get through. Mc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
