Internet Fax explained:

Any faxes sent to your fax number are collected by TNZ Fax, converted into a PDF or TIF document, and emailed to you. You do not need a physical fax machine or telephone line - TNZ handles this!

You can send faxes by addressing an email to thefaxnumber@fax.tnz.co.nz and attaching a document, PDF or image. See the Email-to-Fax Guide to learn more.


When receiving a fax

  1. The fax sender uses their normal fax machine to send the fax
  2. Our fax servers answer the fax call and handle receiving of the fax
  3. Our fax server delivers the fax to you via email
  4. You can also view received faxes via your web dashboard login

When sending a fax

  1. You send a fax using email-to-fax
  2. Our fax servers convert your email into a fax and send it to the fax number
  3. The fax recipient receives a normal fax on their fax machine
  4. Our fax server emails you a delivery report (advising the status of the fax)

We can port your existing fax number to our fax network. This process typically takes five business days. We can port numbers in both New Zealand and Australia. See Number Portability for details.

You can view your archive of faxes using the online dashboard. Faxes are kept available for three months.

For security conscious customers, fax archiving can be disabled. See No Archive for details.

All faxes you receive are available to view using the online dashboard. Log In from anywhere to view all received faxes.

We can also deliver received faxes to your FTP server, or you can log into our FTP server to receive fax documents.

You can send a fax to any fax number worldwide.

When sending an international fax, ensure to format the number like you would for a telephone call, eg 00[country code][area code][number] = 0061233334444

When your fax completes delivery, you will receive an email report advising if the fax was sent successfully or not.

If the delivery report states "Sent OK" you can be assured the fax machine received the fax. You can also view fax delivery reports using the online dashboard.
