UK Pension Transfer
There are many UK immigrants coming into New Zealand who have pension plans left in the UK. This also applies to returning Kiwis who may have joined schemes whilst working in the UK. You may be able to transfer your UK pension funds to New Zealand, however there are pros and cons.
There are many differences between the UK Pension system and New Zealand rules. The rules regarding transferring UK pension’s to NZ have also changed considerably since April 2006.
We believe it is important that you get professional advice, as transferring may not be the best option for you now. Richard Harden was a UK adviser before immigrating to NZ so he has experience in this field and can assess your position and advise you appropriately.
