A transfer of a UK pension fund to a pension scheme provider in an overseas location such as Guernsey, New Zealand or Isle of Man is done via a Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme or QROPS, pronounced “queue-rops”.
Don't wait until you retire to take control of your UK pension. If you are in your 40s, 50s or 60s there are some compelling reasons as to why you should address your pension now. As a non UK resident with an existing UK pension fund and as legislation currently stands there remains the opportunity to take control of your pension fund. Do not wait until you retire. It may be too late.
