Australia Post Delivery Times Overseas

You can find the recommended last lodgement dates for all our international destinations listed on our website. While these dates are correct at time of publishing, they are subject to change.

Overseas deliveries may be affected by factors that are beyond our control such as customs delays and overseas postal disruptions, so we recommend sending as early as you can.

Through investment in our delivery infrastructure and adding more capacity across our workforce, you can rely on us to deliver during the busiest time of the year. For both domestic and international destinations, items sent after these dates will be delivered as quickly as possible, but they may not arrive until after Christmas.
