My 401k Abroad
Take Control From Overseas
Old 401(k) sitting in the U.S. while you live abroad? Don’t let it sit forgotten.
Get matched with a U.S.-licensed advisor who understands expat needs.
The Problem
If you worked in the United States, chances are you left a 401(k) behind when you moved abroad. Many Americans overseas forget about these accounts until they realize the money is sitting idle, hard to access, and possibly losing growth opportunities.
Common challenges include:
- Limited control once you leave your employer
- Complicated account access outside the U.S.
- Hidden fees that erode savings
- Confusion around cross-border tax treatment
The Solution
The good news: you have options. Many expats roll over their 401(k) into an IRA for flexibility, consolidate multiple accounts into one, or explore other U.S.-licensed solutions. The right step depends on your situation.
