UK State Pension Changes for People Living in the EU – Webinar

For many UK nationals living in the EU, the UK State Pension is a vital component of long-term retirement planning. It is often viewed as a dependable baseline that brings stability later in life.

However, significant changes are set to take effect from 6 April 2026. New rules regarding voluntary National Insurance contributions will remove the ability for overseas residents to pay Class 2 contributions, potentially making it more expensive and difficult to protect your entitlement.

Join Oscar Odoch, Wealth Manager at Private Client Consultancy, for this essential update on what these changes mean for your retirement and why the window to act is narrowing.

What you’ll learn:

The April 2026 Changes: What is changing for EU residents and why it matters.

Class 2 vs Class 3: Understanding the financial difference between the two contribution classes.

New Eligibility Rules: How stricter “UK connection” rules may affect long-term expatriates.

Timing is Critical: Why you need to review your National Insurance record before the deadline.

Strategic Planning: How to secure your qualifying years cost-effectively.

Why You Should Attend?

If you have lived or worked outside the UK for an extended period and expect to rely on the UK State Pension, you cannot afford to ignore this shift. This session will help you understand if you are affected and clarify whether you need to take action before the more expensive rules come into force.
