A postprocessing apparatus includes a processing tray on which a print sheet as a target of a postprocess is put, a stopper guide with which the print sheet on the processing tray makes contact, an intermediate roller, a registration mechanism, a guide mechanism, a driving device of the registration mechanism, and a transmission mechanism. The intermediate roller is configured to transport the print sheet. The registration mechanism is configured to move the incoming print sheet transported by the intermediate roller onto the processing tray and align print sheets on the processing tray. The guide mechanism is configured to guide the print sheet moved by the registration mechanism toward the stopper guide. The transmission mechanism is configured to transmit driving force of the driving device to the guide mechanism with a delay.
