Rise in super guarantee rate

As of 1 July 2023, the super guarantee rate is set to rise to 11% for all eligible workers. This increase is part of a longer-term uplift in the super guarantee rate which is set to rise from 9.5% in 2021 to 12% by 2025.

Maximum super contribution base rise

The FY2023 limit will increase to $62270.
