Amazon Location Service now offers bulk address validation for the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom
Amazon Location Service now offers bulk address validation for the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom. Customers can now validate, correct, and standardize large volumes of addresses at scale, whether cleaning customer databases before a CRM migration, verifying shipping addresses to reduce failed deliveries, screening addresses for identity verification and fraud prevention, or improving direct mail targeting and insurance underwriting accuracy. This capability supports use cases across healthcare, financial services, transportation and logistics, retail, and more.
Address validation checks addresses against authoritative postal data, corrects common errors like misspellings, missing postal codes, and non-standard abbreviations, and standardizes formatting to match regional postal rules. Each result includes a confidence score and deliverability indicators so applications know exactly what to trust and act on. Using the new Amazon Location Service Jobs API, customers upload their address records to their own Amazon S3 bucket, submit a validation job, and retrieve enriched, standardized results when processing is complete. For addresses in the United States, Canada, and Australia, customers can optionally request position (geocode) coordinates alongside validated address results in the same job.
Address validation is available in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Ireland), Europe (Stockholm), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Canada (Central), Europe (London), and South America (São Paulo).
