Is it legal to mail gospel tracts to foreign countries?
I have read USPS legal information as well as international postage laws (online) and I have not seen anything to indicate that this would be illegal. We were hoping to start a project in which we would place a gospel tract in an envelope and address it to someone or some business elsewhere in the world (we plan on getting addresses from online yellow pages and white pages). I just wanted to be sure that this is within legal guidelines.

it is legal to send them,..but some country's it might not be legal for those citizens to read them,..
I would say WHO CARES if its legal! Was it legal for the apostles to preach after they had been ordered not too by simple worldly governments? This is a great idea, and will hopefully do much to spread the word of God to "the ends of the earth!" If it is God's work, it is legal by the laws of heaven, which are far beyond the laws of the world.
(I wouldnt put a return address on it though, just in case!) :)
If you mail it to a nation where Christianity is a legal religion, then the only consideration is whether junk mail is allowed there.
If you mail it to a nation where Christianity is an illegal religion, then the authorities there may be seeking your extradition. I am not sure if they'd get it, because to be extradited, it has to be for some crime that is also a crime in both nations. If they succeed, you would probably get the death sentence.
So do your homework nation by nation very carefully.
