Explanation:
Cred ca este mai nimerita aceasta traducere, intrucat ea este intalnita foarte des in corespondenta comerciala/ de afaceri si nu se refera neaparat la bunavointa/amabilitate.

la familia: / la domnul: / la doamna: / la firma:


Explanation:
"care of" or shorter C/O means that a person or a company can be found at a certain postal address, which is not the main (permanent) one of that person or company. This is different from “attention of” in which case it might end-up in wrong hands!

- if the indicated address is at a family, please write for example:

Destinatar:
D-l. John SMITH, la familia POPESCU
(+ the Popescu family’s address)

- if the indicated address is at a man, please write for example:

Destinatar:
D-l. John SMITH, la domnul POPESCU Ion
(+ Mr. Popescu’s address)

- if the indicated address is at a woman, please write for example:

Destinatar:
D-l. John SMITH, la doamna POPESCU Maria
(+ Mrs. Popescu’s address)

- if the indicated address is at a company, please write for example:

Destinatar:
D-l. John SMITH, la firma POPESCU IMPORT EXPORT SRL.
(+ the company address)

- if instead of Mrs. John SMITH the consignee is Mrs. Mary SMITH:

Mr. John SMITH (d-l John SMITH) will be replaced by Mrs. Mary SMITH (d-na Mary SMITH), for example.

- if instead of Mr. John SMITH the consignee is a company / organisation:

Mr. John SMITH (d-l John SMITH) will be replaced by SMITH OVERSEAS Inc, for example.
