Individuals and their families who lived in Australia or New Zealand may be owed money by the government. This money is in the form of dormant accounts returned to the government after a few years.

Each of these countries has unique dormant accounts and unclaimed property laws. However, the governments provide the public with databases and resources to find unclaimed money in each country. Money and property held by Australia and New Zealand in dormant status consists mainly of the following types:

  • Bank and Credit Unions accounts
