New Zealand Pensions

It is important to know what happens to the retirement savings you're leaving behind in the UK if you are about to emigrate to New Zealand. You'll also need to know how pensions and retirement savings are accrued and taxed in New Zealand.

We've compiled a series of articles to navigate you through the pension system in New Zealand. But if you are just starting to investigate your pension options, we suggest that you start with our one page Beginners Guide to New Zealand Pensions (PDF, 80kb). It will give you a good overview of how pensions work for Brits in New Zealand.
