How are pensions taxed under the Austria-United Kingdom tax treaty?
Under the Austria-United Kingdom tax treaty, private pensions are generally taxable only in the country of residence — meaning no withholding tax applies at source (0%).

Government pensions may have different rules under a separate treaty article. This 0% rate compares to a median of 0% across Austria's 36 active treaty partners, and 0% across United Kingdom's 54 active partners.
