Temporary Mailing Address in Brisbane for Visa Clients (Migration Agent Guide)

personal mailing address for immigration agents clients

If your clients are relocating, staying in temporary accommodation, or moving between rentals, mail is one of the first things that goes wrong — bank cards, TFN letters, Medicare correspondence, legal documents and courier parcels can easily end up lost or sent to the wrong address.

This guide explains a simple referral option: a secure personal mailing address in New Farm, Brisbane that helps your clients stay organised during the first weeks or months of settling in Australia.

Quick answer: What can I refer clients to?

Salt Space Coworking (New Farm) offers a Personal Mailing Address subscription designed for personal mail only. Your client receives a real street address, we accept letters and standard courier parcels, and we email them when items arrive (often with a photo of unopened mail).

Real street address
New Farm, Brisbane (not a PO Box)
Email notifications
Within 24 hours, usually with a photo
Up to 4 names
Primary contact + 3 additional names

Set up a Personal Mailing Address

Tip for agents: ask clients to list every name you expect mail under at signup (partners + children), so mail is correctly matched on arrival.

Important: this service is personal mail only

This Personal Mailing Address subscription is designed for personal use only and must not be used for business registration, company addresses, or Google Business listings. If your client needs a business address, use the Virtual Office service instead: https://saltspace.com.au/virtual-office/

Why mail becomes a problem for visa clients (and why it matters to you)

Common pain points

  • Clients are in short-term rentals or sharehouses where mail goes missing.
  • They move quickly (first rental → second rental) and forget to update addresses.
  • Some couriers can’t deliver to PO Boxes or “parcel lockers” the way clients expect.
  • Important government or legal mail is time-sensitive and hard to replace.

What you gain as a migration agent

  • Fewer “Where did my mail go?” follow-ups.
  • Less risk of missed deadlines caused by address confusion.
  • A simple, credible recommendation you can give clients on day one.
  • Peace of mind for families managing multiple names and documents.

  1. Sign up online (takes under a minute).
  2. Invoice emailed same day.
  3. Pay online (or EFTPOS onsite during staffed hours).
  4. On payment, Salt Space sends a “permission to use address” authorisation.
  5. Client can start using the new mailing address immediately.
