If that sounds like you, there are a few things you should know:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>First, your foreign pension plan doesn\u2019t get the same preferential tax treatment as a U.S. pension<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2014 it depends on (among other things) where you live and where the pension is located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Second, you may need to report transactions with your foreign pension on your yearly tax return,<\/strong>\u00a0and you may have other reporting requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-create-block-hrb-expat-ways-to-file\" class=\"wp-block-create-block-hrb-expat-ways-to-file\"><div class=\"wtf-column wtf-column--left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/expatonline.hrblock.com\/wizard\/introduction\/2021?sat_track=true\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-track=\"{'loc':'b', 'nm':'start file yourself'}\">File on my own<\/a><\/div><div class=\"wtf-column wtf-column--right\"><a href=\"https:\/\/expat.hrblock.com\/s\/login\/SelfRegister?sat_track=true\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-track=\"{'loc':'b', 'nm':'start file with an advisor'}\">File with an advisor<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>You probably have more than a few questions, but don\u2019t worry \u2014 H&amp;R Block Expat Tax Services is here to help.

You\u2019d typically get one from a foreign employer or foreign government. Some of the more common foreign pension plans Americans abroad encounter are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Australian Superannuation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Canadian RRSPs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>French Caisses de Retraites<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>German Pillar Pension System<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hong Kong Mandatory Provident Fund (MPF) and Occupational Retirement Schemes Ordinance (ORSO)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Swiss Pillar Pension System<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Singapore Central Provident Fund (CPF)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>UK Employer Sponsored Pension Schemes and SIPPs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These are only a sampling of all the foreign pension programs around the world and each one comes with its own set of tax complexities. With that in mind, you can see why it\u2019s important to speak with a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/expat-assisted-tax-filing\/\">tax advisor<\/a>&nbsp;before making any financial decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-u-s-tax-treatment-of-foreign-pension-plans\">U.S. tax treatment of foreign pension plans<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many Americans who have foreign pensions mistakenly assume they get the same tax perks as U.S. pensions and retirement accounts, but that\u2019s not the case. Depending on where your foreign pension is located, there\u2019s good news, and there\u2019s bad news:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bad news first. Foreign pension plans generally will not qualify for special tax treatment like a U.S. 401(k) or Traditional IRA<\/strong>. The contributions you make to the plan are not tax deductible or tax deferred for U.S. income tax purposes and, in certain situations, you may be taxed on the annual growth in the plan \u2014 even if it\u2019s not distributed to you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Now the good news: The U.S. has\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/resource-center\/filing\/how-u-s-tax-treaties-help-taxpayers\/\">income tax treaties<\/a>\u00a0with certain countries<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 including Canada,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/resource-center\/country\/united-kingdom\/the-u-k-u-s-tax-treaty-explained\/\">the UK<\/a>, Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands \u2014 that include provisions on pensions.
