Is it Possible to Transfer my UK Pension to Ireland?

If you have worked for years in the United Kingdom and are on a pension plan provided by your employer. However, for some reason, you decide to move to Ireland. Is it possible to transfer your pension to Ireland as you transition? Yes, you can.

 

What is QROPS?

To transfer your pension from the United Kingdom to Ireland, you must identify a Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme (QROPS) in Ireland. A QROPS is a pension scheme registered and recognized with His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC) in the United Kingdom. After identifying a QROPS in Ireland, you can then transfer your UK pension to the scheme.

 

Three Reasons to Transfer your UK Pension to Ireland

1. Convenience. If you intend to move to Ireland permanently or just to retire in the country, transferring your pension makes the most sense. Your pension will still be in euros, and you will have full control over your fund

2. Tax Incentives – More so, you take advantage of tax incentives if you utilise Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme. You will not be liable to pay taxes on your funds if you transfer your pension to Ireland using QROPS.

3. Dependants – transferring your pension using QROPS makes things easier for your dependants and beneficiaries if they live in Ireland. Upon your demise, it would be less complicated for them to administer your estate. However, if your pension is “trapped” in the United Kingdom, they will have significant challenges repatriating your funds.
