I’m moving to Germany next week and it’s been pretty difficult to get anything concrete regarding APO boxes. In my mind, this was never was a priority in planning my move. I’m now to a point where I can start thinking about it- which means I’m ahead in my planning!
How do they actually work?
What a person going over on SOFA status (but not active military) can do to set one up prior to arriving?
Should I even concern myself with this process a week before my one-way flight?
What can I actually ship to/ from it? Spices, electronics, American ziploc bags, etc. etc. Up for any advice on this really.

APO Is an American address that the military use for their postal service (yes the military has their own). Depending on how established the destination base is, it’ll add an extra few days and up to a few weeks, but a base in Germany should add too many days except around Christmas. You can ship most anything, but I’d check with the USPS on a full list.
