If you’re on a Working Holiday Visa in Australia, one of the first things you need is a secure and reliable mailing address. Your Tax File Number (TFN), bank documents, Medicare letters, employment forms and identity verification codes are often sent by post — and losing them can delay your ability to start work.
But if you’re staying in hostels, sharehouses, Airbnbs or short-term accommodation, receiving important mail can be difficult or risky.
That’s where a Personal Mailing Address in Brisbane becomes incredibly helpful.
Salt Space provides a real street address, secure handling of your mail, courier parcel acceptance, plus email notifications of every item.

Why Working Holiday Visa Holders Need a Reliable Mailing Address
When you first arrive in Australia, the government and your employer may send important documents by post, including:
- Your Tax File Number (TFN) letter
- Bank cards and PIN numbers
- Superannuation information
- Medicare enrolment letters
- Employment contracts or onboarding forms
- Identity verification mail (for apps, banking and government services)
If you’re moving around frequently, staying in a hostel or booking short-term accommodation, receiving these items becomes unreliable.
Using a secure mailing address in Brisbane ensures your documents are delivered safely — even if you change where you’re staying.
Can Working Holiday Makers Use Salt Space for Their TFN Mailing Address?
Yes. Absolutely.
Salt Space’s Personal Mailing Address service is ideal for Working Holiday Visa visitors who need a stable, private address for mail. Your TFN letter, bank documents and personal correspondence can all be delivered here safely.

Is a Personal Mailing Address Better Than a PO Box for TFN Delivery?
For people on Working Holiday Visas, usually yes.
PO Boxes cannot receive courier parcels and sometimes cannot be used on online forms that require a real street address. Salt Space’s address works for both postal and courier deliveries.
Here’s the difference:
| Salt Space Personal Mailing Address | PO Box |
|---|---|
| ✔ Real street address (accepted on more forms) | ❌ Not a street address |
| ✔ Accepts couriers + Australia Post | ❌ Couriers cannot deliver |
| ✔ Email notifications | ❌ No notifications |
| ✔ Optional scanning + forwarding | ❌ Not included |
| ✔ Supports multiple names | ❌ Usually one user only |
