Shipping To and From Australia: Important Updates | Announcements

Hi all, Starting September 3, the United States Postal Service will temporarily stop accepting packages shipped to Australia via some shipping services because of disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. You should not use the following USPS services when shipping to Australia: First-Class Package International Service, Commercial ePacket, International Priority Airmail Packets, International Surface Air Lift Packets. As an alternative, you can choose Global Postal Shipping as a carrier when you purchase labels on Etsy. They are still able to deliver packages into Australia. These restrictions from the USPS will be in effect until further notice and we’ll share updates with you as we have them. If you need to stop taking orders from shoppers in Australia for a short time until these USPS shipping restrictions are lifted, you can update the countries you ship to on each of your listings or by editing your shipping profiles. We also have a separate update for sellers in Australia. From September 4-7, Australia Post will not offer pickup for packages from online retailers in New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory, and Victoria. If you need to ship packages during this time, you’ll need to drop them off at the post office instead of scheduling a pickup from your home or studio. Learn more here.
