How the Hongkong Post → Australia Post handoff works

Follow the parcel across both networks without waiting on asynchronous webhooks or losing visibility at the handoff boundary.

1. Hongkong Post Export at Chek Lap Kok (`HKG`)
Hongkong Post sorts the parcel at the Air Mail Centre and tenders it to a direct flight to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, or Perth.
2. Australian Customs & Biosecurity Clearance
Australia Post scans `Arrived awaiting clearance (Inbound)` and clears Australian Border Force (ABF) and DAFF biosecurity.
3. Australia Post Doorstep or Locker Delivery
Australia Post delivers the parcel across Australia using the same 13-character `...HK` barcode.
Origin Postal Operator
`hongkongpost` (Hongkong Post)
Australian Final Mile
`auspost` (Australia Post)
Barcode Preservation
13-character S10 (`...HK`) tracks seamlessly on both Hongkong Post and Australia Post.
