Send a Fax to Australia From Any Device
A Australian office that asks for a fax does not care where you are, only that the pages arrive. Send them to any +61 fax number from your phone or computer, with no machine and no phone line. Your first 5 pages to Australia each month are free.
10 pages free every month. No credit card.
Who still asks for a fax in Australia
Australian medical practices, pharmacies, courts, government agencies, and many businesses still list a fax number and accept referrals, prescriptions, forms, and signed documents by fax. If an Australian office has asked for a fax, or a form carries a fax number, this is how to send it from wherever you are.
What it costs to fax Australia
Your first 5 pages to Australia each month are free. Pages outside the US and Canada count as two, so the 10 free pages every account gets cover 5 pages abroad. Credit packs never expire: Lite is $1.99 for 5 international pages, Standard is $4.99 for 15 international pages, Plus is $9.99 for 50 international pages. A subscription's included pages send to Australia too, at the same two-for-one count. See what the plans include.
Entering a Australian fax number
Choose Australia in the send form, then type the number the way it is dialed inside Australia. An Australian landline number starts with a one-digit area code that begins with 0 when dialed inside Australia, followed by an eight-digit subscriber number; mobile numbers begin with 04. Type the number as it appears on the form. The form shows the number as it will be sent after +61 and drops a domestic leading 0 for you, so type it or leave it off. Do not add a 0 after the country code yourself; the form will not accept it.
How to fax Australia
Save the document as a PDF or take a photo of it. Sign in, upload it, enter the Australian fax number, check the preview of every page, and send. Add a cover page with your name and what the pages are for if the recipient handles many faxes. You get an email when the fax is delivered, and the delivery confirmation records the number, the time, and the page count.
Faxing from anywhere
Where you are does not matter, only the destination. You can fax Australia from inside Australia or from any other country, and the same account faxes 26 other countries. The full list is on send an international fax.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I fax Australia for free?
Yes. Every account gets 10 free pages a month, and they send to Australia. A page outside the US and Canada counts as two, so the free pages cover 5 pages to Australia a month. No credit card is needed.
How much does it cost to send a fax to Australia?
Lite is $1.99 for 5 international pages, Standard is $4.99 for 15 international pages, Plus is $9.99 for 50 international pages. You buy a pack once, there is no subscription, and the credits never expire. Pages to Australia count as two in every plan and in credits.
Do I dial 00 or + before the Australian number?
Neither. Choose Australia in the form and type the local number. The form adds +61 and sends the number in international format.
Can I fax Australia from outside Australia?
Yes. Your location never affects whether a fax goes through, only the recipient's country does. A fax to a Australian number sends the same way from anywhere.
How do I know the fax arrived?
The status page follows the fax while it transmits, and an email arrives when it is delivered. The delivery confirmation records the fax number, the delivered time, and the page count, and you can share it as a receipt.
Can I receive a reply from Australia?
Free sends go out from a shared FaxTerra number that cannot pass replies on to you. A subscription includes your own fax number, and received faxes arrive in your inbox as PDFs. Numbers are available in United States, Canada, New Zealand, and United Kingdom; a Australian office can fax any of them. See how receiving works.
