Brexit and pension transfers.
A window of opportunity?
Last year the UK began to impose a 25%
tax on transfers to overseas pension schemes, including QROPS. is currently excludes individuals and QROPS where both are resident in a European Economic Area (including Gibraltar) country, but who knows what will happen after Brexit? If you wish to move your pension overseas, it may be better to do so now, under known rules, rather than wait and see what happens. Pension transfers can take months, so don’t risk leaving it too late.
