section 160 of the Evidence Act 1995 may govern when service on an address in Australia is taken to be effected.
 (8) Subregulation (7) does not affect the operation of section 28A of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901.
Note: Section 28A of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901 provides that a document may be served (this term includes given, or sent, to):
'(a) on a natural person:
(i) by delivering it to the person personally; or
(ii) by leaving it at, or by sending it by pre‑paid post to, the address of the place of residence or business of the person last known to the person serving the document; or
(b) on a body corporate—by leaving it at, or sending it by pre‑paid post to, the head office, a registered office or a principal office of the body corporate.'.

No address for service
 (9) If no address for service is recorded for the person in the Record of International Registrations:
 (a) a requirement in the Act or these Regulations to serve a document on the person is taken to be satisfied by posting the document to, or leaving it at, a foreign address appearing in the Record for the person; and
 (b) the requirement is taken to be satisfied on the day in Australia on which the document is posted to, or left at, the foreign address.
Note: If subregulation (9) applies, and a document is required to be served in a prescribed period, it will be sufficient compliance that the document is posted to the foreign address on the final day in Australia of the prescribed period. It is not necessary for the posted document to be received at the foreign address on or before that final day, as reckoned in Australia or at the foreign address.
