If you have worked and earned super while visiting Australia on a temporary visa, you can apply to have this super paid to you as a departing Australia superannuation payment (DASP) after you leave.

Generally, you can claim a DASP if the following apply:

  • you accumulated superannuation while working in Australia on a temporary resident visa issued under the Migration Act 1958 (excluding Subclasses 405 and 410)
  • your visa has ceased to be in effect (for example, it has expired or been cancelled)
  • you have left Australia
  • you are not an Australian or New Zealand citizen, or a permanent resident of Australia.

Your DASP will generally be paid within 28 days of receipt of your completed application. It may take longer if you submit an incomplete application or you are required to submit additional supporting documents.

Our fee for DASP application are as follows:

  • Superfund balance before tax less than $2000 – Application fee $135
  • Superfund balance before tax $2000 to $5000 – Application fee $195

The application fee will be determined based on your superannuation balance. During the application process, additional charges may be incurred, including fees for notarization of documents overseas, postage fees, and document translation fees.
