24 July 2026

Does your enterprise hold unclaimed money?

Any unclaimed money held by organisations and individuals on 30 June 2026 can now be lodged with Revenue NSW.

All lodgements must be completed by 31 October 2026.

Changes to the Unclaimed Money Act in 2025 saw the statutory period for holding unclaimed money changed from 6 to 2 years. As a result, you need to include unclaimed money held prior to 30 June 2024 in this return.
