Parattah is a small township in Tasmania, located approximately 6 kilometres (4 mi) southeast of the town of Oatlands.

The village retains the original general store, the impressive Tudor style Parattah Hotel and a number of historic churches.

The first post office serving the township opened 1 June 1879 and was originally named Oatlands Station until it was renamed Parattah with effect from 1 January 1882.

She was succeeded by her daughter, Vera Fisher, who retired in March 1977 and who has been claimed to be a descendant of the postal reformer Sir Rowland Hill.

Parattah Junction remains the highest elevated station on the Tasmanian rail network, and originally housed the town's post office until 1914.
