Check for  remote areas:

1. Search by zip code: Find the country on the corresponding remote list according to the country on the recipient's address. For example, if the country is Argentina and the zip code is 1917, then find the country of Argentina on the remote table, and then find out whether the zip code 1917 is on the remote table.

2. Search by city: Some countries do not have zip codes, so they should be queried according to the city name. Cities shown on the remote table are considered as remote. For example: Jamaica, city name: Alley, this city is shown on the remoteness table, so it is a remote area.
