Minimum Pension Age

The normal minimum pension age (NMPA) is the minimum age at which most pension savers can access their pensions without incurring an unauthorised payments tax charge unless they are retiring due to ill-health. It is currently age 55. The Government has confirmed that the NMPA will increase from age 55 to 57 in April 2028.

The timing of this increase is to coincide with the rise of state pension age to 67 in 2028.
