Pensions
Enim excusatio est et minime accipienda
Since January 1, 2021, the United Kingdom has been a third country to the European Union. EU law has ceased to apply in the UK.
The Withdrawal Agreement provides specific provisions for British nationals settled in France before December 31, 2020. In most cases, you will retain your rights acquired before this date and continue to benefit from social security coordination mechanisms. The agreement of December 30, 2020 does not modify these provisions in any way.
If you wish to settle in France, you are not covered by the provisions of the Withdrawal Agreement but the Trade and Cooperation Agreement provides for the coordination of social security in certain areas.
You are concerned if you are a British citizen residing in France and if you want your periods of activity and contribution to be taken into account for the calculation of your pension rights.
