Welcome Welcome to the 2016 edition of the POAAL Licensed Post Office Supplier Directory. POAAL established the LPO Supplier Directory as a resource for Licensees to find new suppliers to help diversify and grow their revenue. There are also service providers listed who can assist with insurance, professional services and selling your business. If you know of any suppliers who aren’t listed in this directory who should be, then contact POAAL and we’ll contact them regarding future editions of the LPO Supplier Directory. The POAAL LPO Supplier Directory is another way that POAAL helps Licensees Australia-wide.

Brands Australia 23 Encore Ave Somerton VIC 3062
Have you future proofed your passport business yet? In 2017, the Government could introduce Direct Capture for Passport photos. The ID Station is ready and capable for this implementation and is the only system on the market with direct capture capabilities. ID Station utilises ICAO Biometric Software Technology and checks each photo against 80 specification tests to ensure the image complies with international passport photo standards. A compliance certificate can be issued and submitted with the passport application to reduce photo rejections and ensure compliance. The photo can be emailed to the customer for online renewals for a number of countries, including soon to be annouced Australia.
