At the moment I live in the UK. December 2023 I cashed in my 25% tax free cash from my pension.

I sent it to my Thai bank account

Shortly I am going to put my home up for sale. I will be sending some of proceeds to my Thai bank account,

hopefully before the end of 2024.

I will then be looking to move to Thailand. Will I  have to pay tax on the money I have sent as a non resident.

Would i be better off waiting until July 2025 to make the move

                                                       thanks kevtheblue

Thank you Cleopatra 2 Tanoshi Treetops Topt for your help.

As i see it then the more years i work now the COPE estimate £41 will stay the same.

                   thanks kev

Does anybody understand how COPE actually works.

I  am aged 55 looking to move to Thailand in the next 3 years.

I have Thai girlfriend and 3 year old daughter.

In september 2018 i looked into what my state pension would be.

On the GOV website it read i had enough years fully paid.

I new that i had contracted out for approx 17 years, so i decided  to double check.

I rang Newcastle pension centre where they comfirmed i had already got enough years.

I asked about the years i had contracted out, I was told i must have been earning good money

as my contributions to my state pension had not been afected.

I asked for a letter of comfirmation.In the letter it states i would get the full amount £164 .

Also you cannot improve your forecast anymore but still need to pay N I contributions.

On the next page it states your COPE estimate is £41 . Does anybody now what this means.

                       thanks   kev

Hi sorry if this has been asked before, I will be moving to Thailand in 2022,  in 2031 i will be 67.

My question is do i get the rate in 2022 or 2031.
