How can employees make contributions?
If you’re an employee you must contribute at least 3% of your gross salary.
You can choose to contribute at a higher rate of 4%, 6%, 8% or 10% of your salary.
No matter what percentage an employee chooses to contribute, the employer is only required to contribute 3%.
Inland Revenue will transfer the contributions to your KiwiSaver provider.
You can also make voluntary contributions as a lump sum or top-up payment.
