Note.
  • The openingHours field is supported only in schemas inherited from Organization/LocalBusiness and Place/CivicStructure.

  • If the site belongs to a chain business, you should mark up each location as a separate company.
  • All pages with markup should be linked to from the home page.

You can use the validator to check if the micro-markup is correct.

Example of markup

<div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Organization">
  <span itemprop="name">Yandex</span>
  Contacts:
  <div itemprop="address" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress">
    Address:
    <span itemprop="streetAddress">ul. Lva Tolstogo, 16</span>
    <span itemprop="postalCode">119021</span>
    <span itemprop="addressLocality">Moscow</span>,
  </div>
  Telephone:<span itemprop="telephone">+7 495 739–70–00</span>,
  Fax:<span itemprop="faxNumber">+7 495 739–70–70</span>,
  Email address: <span itemprop="email">pr@yandex-team.ru</span>
</div>

Specify your question about the address snippet:

The “Addresses on the map” label is displayed if the organization has two or more addresses in the same region. When you click the label, you can see the organization addresses on Yandex.Maps. In this case, the snippet doesn't display the address and phone number.

If your organization has one address but the snippet displays the “Addresses on the map” label, check the information in Yandex.Business. To ask about editing information in Yandex.Business, use this form.

The address snippet is displayed if the site is in the Top 30 Yandex search results. It uses the organization details published in Yandex.Business:

  • The main page of the site is specified (for example, http://example.com).
  • The site address is the same as in Yandex.Webmaster: either with or without the www prefix and with the HTTP or HTTPS protocol.
  • The organization's contact information (city, street, house number) is specified fully.

To change the contact information in the address snippet, edit the organization card in Yandex.Maps:
  1. Find the organization in Yandex.Maps and click the Edit link.
  2. In the form that opens, enter the correct information about the organization.

The address snippet data is usually updated within a week after you change the organization card.
