What zone is australia royal mail

Australia is considered to be in Zone 4 by Royal Mail, which is a postal zone classification system used by the UK's Royal Mail to determine the cost of sending mail and parcels to different countries.

Zone 4 includes countries that are considered to be in the Asia-Pacific region, and the postal rates for sending mail and parcels to Australia are generally higher than those for sending mail and parcels to countries in Zone 1 (Europe) or Zone 2 (North America).

Here is a breakdown of the Royal Mail postal zones:

• Zone 1: Europe (including the UK)
• Zone 2: North America (including the USA, Canada, and Mexico)
• Zone 3: South America, Africa, and the Middle East
• Zone 4: Asia-Pacific (including Australia, New Zealand, and countries in Southeast Asia)
• Zone 5: Far East (including China, Japan, and countries in East Asia)
• Zone 6: Indian Subcontinent (including India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh)

It's worth noting that Royal Mail's postal zones are not the same as the International Postal Union's (IPU) postal zones, which are used to determine the cost of sending mail and parcels between countries. The IPU's postal zones are based on the country's distance from the sender, rather than its geographical location.
