Transfer UK Pension to France Service

Specialist Pension Advice for British Expats Living in France

At Titan Wealth International, we offer a dedicated pension transfer service for British expats residing in — or planning to move to — France who seek to optimise their UK pensions for life abroad.

Transferring a UK pension involves navigating complex regulations and tax implications between the UK and France. Our role is to simplify this process and provide expert, compliant advice tailored to your unique circumstances.

The only international firm with dual accreditation, as a CISI Chartered Status Firm and a CII International Professional Partner Firm.

Who This Service Is For?

01

You’re a British expat living in France and want greater control over your UK pension.

02

You’re relocating to France within the next 12–24 months and wish to prepare your finances in advance.

03

You hold one or more UK pensions — including defined benefit, defined contribution, or personal pensions — and want to understand your options.

04

You have financial interests and assets in both the UK and France and require integrated advice that considers your entire cross-border position — including employer pensions, SIPPs, ISAs, Assurance Vie (VIE), property, business interests, and other investments — as well as UK inheritance tax planning.

05

You’re looking for joined-up wealth management that aligns your UK and French financial planning — including pension structuring, estate planning, and long-term investment strategy.

* Please note that we cannot transfer your UK State Pension or most public sector pensions, unless you are a member of the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) or a Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS).

How Our UK Pension Transfer to France Service Works

A step-by-step process designed for clarity, compliance, and confidence.

Book a free call with a UK cross-border pension transfer specialist to learn:

  • Whether you qualify for a UK pension transfer
  • The potential tax and financial benefits under French residency
  • Whether an International SIPP suits your goals

We contact your UK pension providers and collect all necessary details directly from scheme trustees. We also trace any forgotten pensions, ensuring nothing gets missed. This is a complimentary service.

Once we have the data, your adviser will get to know your full financial picture — including your plans for life in France or elsewhere, lifestyle expectations, and desired retirement age.

You’ll receive a complimentary Pension Transfer Assessment Report that includes:

  • A full snapshot of your pensions and projected income
  • Comparisons of keeping vs transferring
  • A professional recommendation tailored to your goals

If a transfer is right for you and you decide to proceed, we’ll handle everything from start to finish. All costs will be communicated to you upfront before proceeding. If a transfer isn’t right for you, or you decide not to proceed, you walk away without any charges.
