International Envelope Sizes
A Selective Annotated Guide
To ensure economical mailing when materials prepared in one country are to be mailed in a second country, it is necessary to know the envelope sizes commonly used in the second country. Because designers and publishers often do not have ready access to this information, EDS Inc., Editorial & Design Services, has published this selective annotated guide to a variety of commercial, general purpose, and special-use envelopes available in Japan, other countries using the metric system, and North America. ISO (International Organization for Standardization) envelope sizes are the official international metric envelope sizes; however, Japan uses JIS (Japan Industrial Standard) and metricated traditional envelope sizes.
N.B. The Universal Postal Union requires that envelopes for correspondence (1) measure at least 90 mm x 140 mm (3 1/2" x 5 1/2") and no more than 120 mm x 235 mm (4 3/4" x 9 1/4"); (2) be oblong, with the dimension of the long side being at least 1.414 times that of the short side; and (3) be made from paper weighing at least 63 gsm (grams per square meter).
In the interest of legibility, Japanese terms are not italicized in the table below.
ISO C Series Envelopes This envelope series was designed to accommodate ISO A size papers; Metric measurements are the finished envelope size; Inch measurements are approximate (calculated at 25.4 mm = 1 inch and rounded off). N.B. Sizes identified as nonstandard do not conform to Universal Postal Union requirements for correspondence envelopes. | |||

* Although DL is not part of the ISO C series, it is a very widely used standard size. DL, probably at one time the abbreviation of DIN Lang (Deutsche Industrie Norm, Long), is now identified as "Dimension Lengthwise" by ISO 269. |
Common Japanese Envelopes The JIS classifies envelopes in three categories: Choukei (Long), with the opening/flap on the envelope's short dimension, in accordance with traditional practice; Kakukei (Rectangular), with the opening/flap on the short dimension; and Youkei (Western-style), with the opening/flap on the long dimension. Most Japanese envelope sizes are metricated traditional sizes; Width precedes height; Metric measurements are the finished envelope size; Inch measurements are approximate (calculated at 25.4 mm = 1 inch and rounded off). N.B. Sizes identified as nonstandard do not conform to Universal Postal Union requirements for correspondence envelopes. | ||||

N.B. Except where noted, the envelope opening/flap is on the long dimension; Sizes identified as nonstandard do not conform to Universal Postal Union requirements for correspondence envelopes. | ||||
