Mail and parcels addressed to UBC Okanagan recipients
Mail coming in from external senders to the Okanagan campus must have recipient name, department name, building address, the city, the province, and the postal code.
The following format should be used:
John Smith
Central Receiving and Mail Services
3287 University Way
Kelowna BC V1V 1V7
Please note that the common address ‘3333 University Way’ should no longer be used. All buildings on the Okanagan campus now have their own address. If you wish to look up an address you can do so by visiting the UBC Directory and searching for the name of your recipient.
Mail addressed to UBC Vancouver recipients
Mail coming from external senders to the Vancouver campus must have the recipient name, the department name, the building address, the city, and the postal code on the label. The following format should be used:
John Smith

Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z4
The building name itself (i.e. University Services Building) is optional as each building has a unique address.
