Australia Post SMSF ESA Service Ending – What You Need to Know

Australia Post will no longer offer subscriptions to its SMSF Gateway Services. This means the AUSPOSTSMSF ESA (Electronic Service Address) will become unavailable once your subscription expires. If your SMSF is currently using AUSPOSTSMSF, you will not be able to process rollovers or receive employer contributions after the expiry date. To avoid disruption, it is essential to arrange an alternative ESA provider before your subscription ends and download all required SMSF data in advance.

Without a valid ESA, your SMSF will not comply with ATO requirements for contributions and rollovers. This can cause delays in processing superannuation rollovers, rejection of employer contributions, and potential compliance issues with the ATO. To ensure your SMSF continues operating smoothly, you should transition to a new ESA provider as soon as possible.

At iCare Super, we provide a free ESA service to all our SMSF clients. Unlike other providers who may charge a separate ESA fee, our ESA cost is fully included in your annual SMSF administration fee. Our annual SMSF fee covers everything your fund needs: free ESA, SMSF tax return preparation and lodgement, financial statements, compliance reports, and independent external audit. This means there are no additional costs or hidden charges.

If you are currently using AUSPOSTSMSF and need an alternative solution, contact iCare Super to discuss your SMSF administration needs. By transferring your SMSF to us, you will enjoy a free ESA service and stay compliant with ATO requirements without worrying about subscription expiry dates.

With Australia Post discontinuing the AUSPOSTSMSF ESA service, SMSF trustees must act quickly to avoid disruptions to contributions and rollovers. At iCare Super, we make the process simple, cost-effective, and stress-free with our all-inclusive SMSF administration service.
