How the transfer process works
Learn the steps, what documents you’ll need and how long the transfer process typically takes.
Should I transfer my KiwiSaver?
Factors such as how long you plan to live in Australia, your retirement goals and how you want to manage your savings can all influence whether transferring is right for you.
Using KiwiSaver for first home deposit
Depending on your circumstances, you may be able to contribute some of your KiwiSaver savings towards the deposit of your first home in Australia.
Superannuation vs KiwiSaver
Both systems are designed to help you grow savings for your retirement, but there are some important differences such as contributions, access to funds and insurance.
Moving back to New Zealand?
The transfer process works both ways. If you’re returning home, you may be able to transfer your super and KiwiSaver savings back to New Zealand under the Trans-Tasman portability agreements.
