5 Things Expats Should include in Their Exit Strategy - when Living and Working Abroad Goes Wrong
What gets missed, in the excitement and enthusiasm of relocating overseas, achieving your dream of Living and Working Aboard, investing in overseas property and business, is an exit strategy.
We all get carried away with something new, something exciting, and can easily allow our common sense to be left on the beach while we go in search of promised new lands, home and work abroad. But what then? How do we get back home? What if the dream fails?
Here’s a check list of 5 things for expats to include in their exit strategy.
Pension Freedom for Expats - Business or Retired
New Pension Freedom Rules allow Expats to Draw the whole of their UK based pension fund and pay tax in their country of overseas tax residence. This offers potentially large tax savings for Expat Business and Retired people Living and Working Abroad.
You don't have to retire to free your pension, even if living and working abroad, you can still reclaim the pension once you are over 55.
In the UK any Pension fund over £43,000 could generate a UK tax bill of 40% (£17,200)
The freed pension funds can then be invested in any way, cash investments, family business, overseas property, family education, repay loans, enjoy retirement.
ProACT can help free your Pension and reclaim big tax savings up to 40%.

While reductions can be achieved with allot of hard work a minimum social insurance tax bill would be around Euro 300 per quarter.
