Hi Leah, my understanding is that you can, but when we leave the EU we won’t get any increases. I’m sure you’ll find something about it online, so I would double check. Good luck. 😀

Assuming you have informed HMRC you have moved to Spain, they should contact you when you are due to get it. You can have it paid into a Spanish account or English one. If you have been living in Spain and not paying NI contributions prior to being state pension age, you won't get as much as you would if you paid NI contributions right up until it is due to be paid.

Hi, I recommend a company like Moneycorp. You get your UK pension deposited with them and they give you a better rate for Euros than the banks. Then all you do is transfer funds online to a Spanish bank.
