Australia, New Zealand, UK, USA, Canada, Sweden and Ireland, and other countries may participate in the near future.

If you have a Pension/Superannuation Scheme in a country other than Australia there may be an opportunity to transfer these retirement savings to the New Zealand Fire Service Superannuation Scheme if you are employed by the New Zealand Fire Service. Australian Federal legislation does not permit any transfer of Superannuation entitlements from an Australian Superannuation Fund to New Zealand Superannuation Schemes. With regard to Pension Scheme transfers from the United Kingdom, the New Zealand Fire Service Superannuation Scheme is a QROPS (Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme) with a reference of QROPS500681 and is thus entitled to receive United Kingdom Pension Scheme assets into the scheme subject to the requirements established by UK legislation. Should you require further information on these transfers contact the New Zealand Fire Service Superannuation Scheme by: e-mail on info@firesuper.co.nz post at P O Box 36-287, Merivale, Christchurch 8146, New Zealand or facsimile on +64 3 355 3499.
