I'd spell it out: "no number".
Just the "n/n" would be confusing.

Thanks again, quandt!
That's exactly what I wanted to know: how to say "s/n - sem número" in English.
So, can I say "n/n", or should I say "no number"?

Explanation:
It is important to put the country if this is for international postage - everyone knows Rio and most people would know Niterói, but other places would cause greater problems - who would guess that Schröeder and Witmarsum are in Brazil? I would not put "Pereira da Silva Street", not on a letter anyway.
