HMRC’s latest list of recognised overseas pension schemes can be found here.

In all, 42 schemes have been added, 20 removed and 2 amended.

HMRC can’t guarantee these are Recognised Overseas Pension Schemes (ROPS) or that any transfers to them will be free of UK tax. It is the employers/organisations responsibility to find out if any tax has to be paid on any transfer of pension savings.


"I know it is not till next June but just booked on The Payroll Centre's Annual conference. This is my must do course/conference of the year, having been almost every year for 10+ years, only missing for my wedding and having a baby, I even went one year with a 3 month old in tow! "
