Transfer your pension fund or retirement annuity offshore

If you’ve emigrated from South Africa you can now convert your retirement annuity or pension fund to cash and transfer the funds to your new home before the age of 55.

The funds can be used for any purpose – whether you want to reinvest into a local pension, use it for property upgrades, travelling or simply for a lifestyle upgrade.

Why transfer your retirement savings?

Before 2008 this process wasn’t possible, but changes to South African tax legislation make it possible for you to convert your retirement annuity to cash. This means you now have access to your money wherever you are to do with as you please.

However, the exchange control process is rather complicated. You will need to liaise with SARS, the Reserve Bank, your insurers as well as an authorised bank.

Luckily finglobal.com will do all the legwork for you!
