Eligibility for DASP

Generally, you can claim a departing Australia superannuation payment (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 and you do not hold any other active Australian visa
• you are not an Australian or New Zealand citizen, or a permanent resident of Australia.

Note: If you are a New Zealand citizen leaving Australia permanently, you may be able to transfer your super to New Zealand under the Trans-Tasman retirement savings portability scheme for individuals.

If you are a temporary resident, you can find more information on super in Temporary residents and super.
