HMRC resists Qrops members’ court claims over 55% tax charge - New Model Adviser®

HM Revenue & Customs has hit back at members of a Singapore-based qualifying recognised overseas pension scheme (Qrops) who are legally challenging the taxman over its decision to apply a 55% tax to their pensions.

Members of the Panthera Recognised Overseas Self Invested International Pension (Rosiip) sought a judicial review of HMRC’s decision to apply charges to pension funds transferred from the UK to the Singapore-based Qrops.

HMRC won a high court case against Panthera in 2011 in which it was claimed Rosiip was not open to Singapore residents and there was in fact a Singapore-based pensions regulator with which it should have registered.

Members of the Panthera scheme can transfer out to another QROPS. Please contact

Guernsey are to fight the unfair rules that HMRC have drafted for QROPS on April 6th, 2012. Guernsey, who have a clean record with regards to QROPS find themselves in an awkward position following HMRC imposing "Condition 4" which means that residents and non-residents in any jurisdiction should be taxed the same in order for a QROPS scheme to be approved. HMRC are basically holding Guernsey to ransom and imposing tax laws on the island that the local government don't want. Guernsey are trying to fight the legislation from going

QROPS Guernsey. New QROPS Rules 2012
We have received confirmation that Guernsey intend to introduce a new Guernsey pension regime in light of the new draft QROPS rules in 2012. This will allow for zero tax on pension income as no tax relief will be provided on local contributions. Although it will be open to local residents it is highly unlikely that many locals would actually join the new regime since they will still be able to obtain tax relief on contribution into the existing pension regime, so the new regime will be highly disadvantageous for them. If this new regime is acceptable to

EURBS (European Union Retirement Benefits Scheme)
EURBS stands for the European Union Retirement Benefits Scheme. This is an overseas pension scheme into which certain EU pension rights can be transferred. The Schengen agreement of 1985 allows free movement of goods, persons, services and capital. As such, if you are from an EU member country and working in another country, you may be able to transfer your pension into an EURBS to mitigate tax. EURBS is a type of QROPS pension transfer for Europeans.
