Australia Post quotes 1-7 business days for delivery based on the service level that the consignment was posted from the origin on. “EMS” (express) consignments will usually be delivered within the lower to middle of this date range, however consignments posted on a “Standard” service may take up to the maximum quoted timeframes to be delivered.
Note: Express consignments typically have a 13 digit tracking number that starts with “E”.

Why is Australia Post notified the next day?

This is because Customs generates an “Authority to Release Report” at midnight each day; hence Australia Post is only provided the authority to deliver your goods at the commencement of the following business day after customs clearance processing.

Clearance timeframes are estimated based on normal business hours (9am-5pm Mon-Fri). If you are lodging outside these hours, clearance timeframes are calculated as commencing from 9am on the next business day.

Please include your ABN if you wish to claim GST import credits on any of your goods.

Select “Business” if the goods are for business use and/or you will be claiming back the import GST on your BAS, otherwise select “Personal”.
