Who This Service Is For?

01

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

02

You’re relocating to New Zealand within the next 12–24 months and want 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’ve worked in the UK but now live in New Zealand long-term and want a pension strategy aligned to your cross-border lifestyle.

05

You’re looking for long-term financial planning and wealth management across both the UK and New Zealand, including ongoing access to UK-based advice.

* 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 New Zealand 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 New Zealand 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 New Zealand 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.
