I am in my 70’s and moving to Varna with my husband. We have research for the answers to paying tax on our UK pensions. It would seem that we have to remit and pay our taxes to the UK. We initially thought we would be paying this to the Bulgarian Government as we would be domicile there. The tax is much lower in Bulgaria. Any thoughts anyone?

It would be very strange to pay taxes in Bulgaria, for a pension received in the UK. Moreover you probably will continue using your UK bank account. But still worth the efforts to check this.
