Delivery of letters and parcels is carried out domestically.
There are several types of parcel delivery: parcel post and express post.
Ideal for packages under $100. If the parcel costs more than this amount, then you should purchase the Extra cover service, which reimburses the cost of the parcel. More details will be described later.
Also suitable for packages costing less than $100.

Delivery time, like regular letters, but unlike other types of letters has several advantages and additional services.

What is a tracking numberand how to track your parcel
Australian mail, like manypostal serviceproviders, provides its customers with the service of tracking their parcel or letter.
You can always track a parcel or a letter on the official website of the Australian post at thetracking numbergiven to you at the post office. A single-track number format for registered international mail has been approved. The Australia Post Track number is the same and consists of 13 characters:
The first letter R indicates that a small packet is registered, the letter C will be sent, EMC mail starts with Latin E. The numbers guarantee the uniqueness of the number. But the last letters define the country of the postal service from where the package was sent.
Conventionally, international mail of Australia Post goes through such main stages:
Australian Post provides a service such as extra cover, which allows you to deposit an additional amount so that you can recover more than $100 for a lost or damaged package or letter.
The maximum refund amount is $5,000.
How does this service work? For the next $100 of possible reimbursement, $2.5 is paid. For example we send jewelry worth $4,000 to a neighboring state by sending up to 500 grams. Then our package will stand:
9 + 2.5 * 39 = 106.5 dollars
