Send and track important items using our secure and cost-effective Imprint service.
If your business sends important items, using our Registered Post Imprint service is a smart option.
We'll deliver to the recipient's address, get proof of ID and ask for a signature.1
You can track individual items2 or access data extracts on the delivery status of multiple items.3
Up to $100 compensation included, with the option of adding extra cover for a fee.4
Registered Post items have an Article ID and a two-dimensional barcode. When the barcode is scanned, important data is captured about the item as it travels through our delivery network to the recipient.
With our Imprint service, you create your own unique barcode to our specifications and print the imprint onto your envelopes. That way, each item is linked to your account. So you can easily track the status of all your items at once.
Registered Post items are delivered according to our Regular timetable. For faster delivery you can choose Priority delivery.
The charge for Registered Post Imprint includes postage to anywhere in Australia, as well as the Registered Post fee.
