QROPS Warning for USA Residents
Careful consideration needs be taken if you are a USA resident or planning to retire in the US. Many QROPS cannot be used as the QROPS jurisdiction is not compatible with USA laws. This may mean you are hit with higher taxes. Due to these additional financial complexities, many advisers choose not to deal with American citizens and residents who hold a UK pension. However, due to the Double Taxation Treaty between the USA and Malta, there is a solution available, however, you must find a financial advisor in the US who is suitably qualified, in order to help you put these arrangements in place.
