Kính gửi Quý khách hàng,
Thông tin bên dưới về Payday Super mà các Doanh nghiệp (DN) tại Úc BẮT BUỘC phải tuân theo như sau:
ĐÂY LÀ LUẬT ĐƯỢC BAN HÀNH BỞI SỢ THUẾ ÚC QUY ĐỊNH (ATO), ko phải dự thảo.
--> Tóm lại là cứ mỗi lần DN trả lương staff (Weekly/Fortnighly/Monthly) thì DN phải gửi Payslip cho staff và Pay Super ngay lập tức luôn (tiền Super 12% sẽ được trừ thẳng trong bank business của DN).
--> Nếu không tuân theo thì ATO tự ra Notice of assessment và tự phạt luôn thay vì trước đây kế toán sẽ làm phần SGC này, mức phạt từ 25% đến 50% + Interest + Admin fee, và tiền phạt không được xin miễn trừ.
Vì vậy các DN phải có khoản Cash Flow dự phòng thật tốt từ 01/07/2026 ạ!
Kính mong Quý Doanh nghiệp hợp tác tốt với các kế toán của mình để không bị mất tiền Phạt khá nặng này!
Regards,

How Payday Super works:
From 1 July 2026 you must pay employees their super guarantee on payday, at the same time as their salary and wages.
Super guarantee is:
• calculated as 12% of an employee's qualifying earnings (QE), which is a new term that brings together ordinary time earnings (OTE) and other payments
• paid to an employees’ super fund on payday and received by the super fund within 7 business days (unless an extended timeframe applies, such as for new employees).
Late payments and the super guarantee charge (SGC)
From 1 July 2026
The SGC applies when amounts aren’t received by a super fund within 7 business days of payday (unless an extended timeframe applies, such as for new employees). The SGC:
• is assessed by the ATO
• is calculated based on QE
• includes interest that compounds daily at the general interest charge rate
• includes an administrative uplift, which can vary based on an employer’s history of meeting super guarantee obligations and may be reduced by a voluntary disclosure
• is tax deductible.
If you still don't pay SGC
• The late payment penalty is generally equal to 25% of the outstanding SGC amount. This will increase to 50% of the outstanding SGC amount if you have been liable for the same penalty in the previous 24 months.
• This penalty cannot be remitted.
If you do not pay the minimum super guarantee (SG) amounts in full and on time for your employees' benefit, or if you don't correctly follow the choice of fund rules, you are liable to pay the super guarantee charge (SGC). We will calculate your SGC and send you a notice of assessment.
