No printer, stamps or post office trip. Upload a PDF, Word document or photo, enter the Darwin NT address and pay by card: $10 by regular post, folded, for up to 12 pages, or $20 by Express Post for up to 20 pages, then $0.30 a page, GST included. We print it exactly as uploaded and Australia Post does the rest.
Send from anywhere. We print and lodge it in Australia, so it reaches Palmerston or the Darwin CBD as domestic post, even from overseas.
How long a letter takes to reach Darwin
- Express Post, $20: usually the next business day. Darwin metro addresses are inside Australia Post's Express Post next-business-day network.
- Regular post, $10: usually 3 to 7 business days.
- Tracking, free with both: we email the tracking number once the letter is lodged. Signature on delivery is $6 extra with either; regular post signed for is Registered post.
These are Australia Post's estimates, not a guarantee: once lodged, arrival is up to Australia Post. See Australia Post delivery times.
Same-day posting cutoff for Darwin
Pay by 2:30pm Melbourne time on a business day and your letter is printed and posted that day. That's 2:00pm in Darwin, or 1:00pm while the eastern states are on daylight saving.
Pay after the cutoff or on a weekend and it goes in the post by the next business day.
Darwin addresses we post to
Anywhere Australia Post delivers in greater Darwin: houses, apartments, offices and PO Boxes, across postcodes 0800 to 0832, including the 0801 PO Box range.
We post to Palmerston, Casuarina, Nightcliff, Parap and Stuart Park, every other Darwin suburb and the rest of the Northern Territory, all for the same price.
Add a company, unit, level or care-of line. Your return address goes on the envelope, so undelivered mail comes back to you.
Good to know about Darwin
Plenty of Territory mail goes well beyond Darwin's compact postcodes. We post to any NT address for the same price, but Australia Post's next-business-day network covers Darwin metro, not remote communities.
What people post to Darwin
Mostly documents that have to arrive on paper:
- Tenancy and bond paperwork, including notices and evidence for the Northern Territory Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NTCAT).
- Letters, objections and applications to the City of Darwin.
- Forms for state and federal agencies in Darwin that won't take email or need an ink signature.
- Signed contracts, statutory declarations (always printed single-sided) and legal notices.
