Hi @Kempah,

The mailing address you've listed is correct for sending TFN applications from overseas. The address is Australian Taxation Office, GPO Box 1574, CANBERRA ACT 2601.

If your registered mail shows a failed delivery, this could be due to how the address was formatted for international post or an issue with the postal service.

You could try:

• double‑checking the envelope format and making sure AUSTRALIA is included as the destination country
• checking with your local postal service to ask why delivery failed
• If the mail keeps getting returned, you may want to re‑send it using a different international service or ask them if extra address fields are needed for your country’s system.
