The Goffin's Cockatoo is restricted to the islands of Tanimbar in Indonesia; however a few feral escapees are found in Singapore.

Cockatoos have a much more restricted range than the true parrots, occurring naturally only in Australasia. Eleven of the 21 species exist in the wild only in Australia, while seven species occur in the islands of Indonesia, New Guinea, the Philippines and the Solomon Islands. Three species occur in both New Guinea and Australia. Some species have widespread distributions, for example the Galah occurs over most of Australia, whereas other species have tiny distribution, confined to a small part of the continent, like the Long-billed Black Cockatoo of West Australia, or to a small island group, like the Tanimbar Cockatoo, which is restricted to the Tanimbar Islands of Indonesia. Some cockatoos have been introduced accidentally to other areas outside their natural range such as New Zealand and Palau.
