  1. well you start with your name then

    unit 15 followed by your street address and the post code if you have one hope this helps :)


  2. Per Wikipedia:

    "Australia

    Australian address are based on the same system used in the UK and USA.

    If the location is a flat or unit, then the street number should be preceded by "Flat" or "Unit" and the flat or unit number, e.g. "Flat 4  201 Broadway Ave" or "Unit 2  203 Broadway Ave". Another common way of expressing a flat or unit number is to write the flat or unit number and then the number of the street address, separated by a slash (/), e.g. "4/201 Broadway Ave" or "2/203 Broadway Ave". The street number and name line are replaced by "PO Box", "GPO Box" or "Reply Paid" and a number when applicable, e.g. "PO Box 123" or "Reply Paid 123". GPO Boxes are always in the state or territory capital city.

    Some large organisations such as universities do not use a street name or suburb, although the postcode is generally the same as the surrounding suburb.

    The last line should always be spelt in all capitals with no punctuation. The state or territory is typically abbreviated to the conventional two or three letter form. Handwritten mail should use the postcode boxes on the envelope if they are present.

    Note that "suburb" in Australia refers to a geographical subdivision of a metropolitan area. This portion of the address does not usually correspond to any political division, but is generally used by Australians for identifying parts of cities. These are nevertheless quite different from British postal towns (see below).

    Example:

    John Citizen

    15 Sample St

    Example Bay VIC 3001"

    So your address would read something like:

            Your Name

            Unit-Flat / #StreetNumber# Street Name

            SUBURB CITY STATE ##Postcode##

    In real usage, your address would be:

            Miss Jane So&So

            2-15 / 2700 Main Street

            NORTHBRIDGE PERTH WA 6003

             Ã‚      or

                    MISS JANE SO&SO  

                    UNIT 2-15  2700 MAIN  ST    

                    NORTHBRIDGE PERTH  WA  6003

    There's a web page that'll help you format any Australian Address located here: http://www.austpost.com.au/BCP/0,1467,CH...

    Hope this helps,

        TX Griff

    (Suburb)

    (State)

    (Postcode)

    Australia.
