PS Form 3615 is the official application required by the U.S. Postal Service to establish a business customer profile and apply for a commercial mailing permit.

Whether you are sending 200+ newsletters, 500+ marketing flyers, using a postage meter, or setting up Business Reply Mail, this form is your mandatory first step. It registers your business with the USPS Business Mail Entry Unit (BMEU).

Detailed Form Walkthrough

Part A: Customer Profile

This is where you establish your identity. You must provide your exact legal business name matching your EIN. Common Mistake: Using a DBA name as the primary legal name without providing the actual corporate entity name. Ensure your address is accurate, as this is where USPS will send billing statements.

Part B: Application Type

Select the specific permits you are requesting. Options include Permit Imprint (printing a postage box on envelopes), Postage Meter, or Precanceled Stamps. If you are a non-profit, you will also need to submit Form 3624 alongside this application.

Part C & D: Additional Services & Certification

Part C covers services like Business Reply Mail (BRM). Part D requires the signature of the applicant. The person signing must be an authorized representative of the company and must present a valid photo ID when submitting the form at the Post Office.

Can I file PS 3615 online?
