Prepaid Reply Mail
Prepaid Reply Mail requires preprinting of
specific information on return envelopes or post cards.
Pre-barcoding is not required. Procedures for
initiating Prepaid Reply Mail printing are as follows:
. Forward a sample envelope or post card to the
OMM for approval
. Present your sample to the command or
company who will do the printing
l Make arrangements with the OMM to have the
correct postage affixed to the prepaid envelopes or post
cards before mailing. The meter site will perform this
function for you.
l Prepaid postage should only be used for post
cards, or when material being returned will be of a
constant weight.
A single permit will be maintained by the
consolidated mail facility or another metering activity
for all commands serviced. The plus 4 portion of the
barcoded ZIP Code will be identical for all activities
at a single installation.
