Usage Note

Apartado most commonly means a numbered section or paragraph in a document (ver apartado 3). In postal contexts, apartado de correos is a post-office box (P.O. box), often shortened to apartado. The word also functions as the past participle of apartar (to set aside), so context determines whether it is a noun or a verb form.
