Transfer costs and what will an ii SIPP cost
Unlike other providers, we don’t charge any fees for transferring in or out. Our SIPP administration fee is just £10 a month (special offer: pay no SIPP fee until April 2021), which will stay the same as your pension pot grows. Once you start to take retirement benefits, there is an additional £10 monthly drawdown fee.
You will also need to choose a service plan. We have a range of plans available, with commission rates to suit your needs. Find out more about our rates and charges.
Having everything under one roof makes things much easier, as I no longer have to deal with multiple providers.

How to transfer a SIPP
Our helpful guide takes you through the process of transferring your SIPP in easy steps.
How long does transferring take?
Transferring your pension as a cash payment usually takes 2 to 6 weeks to complete from receipt of your transfer request. If you’d like to transfer in your existing investments then the transfer will take longer - typically 8 to 12 weeks, depending on the type of investments you hold. For cash transfers, stocks need to be sold prior to making the transfer. Timings also depend on how quickly your current provider works with us to arrange your transfer.
Before you get started
Before you decide to transfer a SIPP to us, it's important that you make sure it's the right thing for you. You should ensure that you won't lose any valuable benefits, like guarantees or bonuses, and you should find out what your exit fees will be before starting. If you're unsure, we recommend seeking the advice of a qualified financial adviser.
