Daylight savings dates

NAB Connect cut-off times are based on Melbourne and Sydney local times (AEDT/AEST). As these time zones transition between AEDT and AEST, payment cut-off times will also transition accordingly.

For customers in the Northern Territory, Queensland and Western Australia, the payment cut-off times for the processing of domestic, international, BPAY, direct credit, direct debit and payroll payments will be one hour earlier from Monday 7 April 2025.
