Frequently asked questions about online faxing

How does online fax work without a fax machine?

With online fax you upload your document (PDF, Word, image) on our website. We convert it into the fax format and transmit it via our fax servers to the recipient fax number. The recipient receives the fax printed on their fax machine as normal, they will not notice any difference compared to a fax sent the conventional way. You do not need your own fax machine or a phone line.

Is a fax sent via the internet legally valid?

Yes, a fax sent online is just as legally valid as a fax from a conventional fax machine. A fax counts as received once it has been fully delivered to the recipient. The transmission report serves as proof of successful delivery. Important: For documents that legally require a handwritten signature, a fax alone is not sufficient, the signed original must be sent by post.

Which documents can I send as a fax?

You can send almost all common document formats by fax: PDF files, Microsoft Word documents (.doc, .docx), images (JPG, PNG) and many other formats. We automatically convert your document into a format optimised for fax transmission. The maximum file size is 20 MB. For best results, we recommend PDF documents with clearly legible text.

How long does fax transmission take?

After successful payment your fax is handed over to our fax servers immediately and transmission starts straight away. The actual transmission time depends on the number of pages and the connection quality to the recipient fax machine. As a rule, one page takes about 30 to 60 seconds. You will automatically receive a transmission report by email once the transmission is complete.

What happens if the fax cannot be delivered?

If delivery fails, for example because the recipient number is busy or does not answer, we automatically retry delivery multiple times. If the fax cannot be delivered after several attempts, you will receive a notification by email. If non-delivery is due to a technical issue on our side, we will refund the amount, see our Terms and Conditions for details.

Which countries can I send faxes to?

With FaxMonkey you can send faxes to over 50 countries, including the USA, the UK, Germany and all EU countries. You can find prices on our pricing page.

Send fax online - the modern alternative to a fax machine

Is fax dead? Quite the opposite. Although email and messaging apps dominate communication, fax remains an important channel in the USA, Germany, the UK and many other countries, especially where verifiability and official recognition matter. With FaxMonkey you can send a fax online without owning a fax machine.

Send a fax without a fax machine - here is how

The traditional way to send a fax requires a fax machine, paper, toner and a phone line. With an online fax service like FaxMonkey, none of that is necessary. Simply upload your document, whether PDF, Word file or image, enter the recipient fax number and we do the rest. Your document is transmitted via our servers as a real fax to the recipient.

When is fax the better choice than email?

Email is convenient, but not always the best choice. A fax offers key advantages when it comes to deadlines and proof. While emails can end up in spam or remain unread, a fax counts as received as soon as the transmission succeeds. Many authorities, courts and companies accept fax as an official communication channel, sometimes even as the only one besides post.

Typical use cases for online fax

Online faxing is most commonly used for contract cancellations (mobile contracts, insurance, gyms), communications with authorities (applications, objections, meeting deadlines), healthcare (referrals between medical practices, transmission of findings) and business correspondence (lawyers, notaries, tax advisers). In all these cases, fax provides a documented transmission path with a timestamp.
