VFS QROPS

At VFS, we offer a UK HMRC approved Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme (QROPS), a unique pension solution, specifically selected to suit the needs of Africans with current UK pension benefits. Our QROPS program can provide you with the opportunity of transferring your accrued UK pension benefits to a more flexible pension scheme.

Our QROPS scheme offers flexible retirement benefits, has no requirement to purchase an annuity and allows you to be more involved in the management of your pension funds. Our scheme is very portable, and allows you to move back to Africa without any loss of pension benefits and in a much more tax-efficient manner.
