Overseas payment of dividends
Shareholders whose registered address is outside the United Kingdom, may be interested in a payment service that enables UK dividends to be paid directly into bank accounts in some 38 countries, in local currency.
Our registrar, Equiniti, can, with your consent, make future dividend payments on your shares via Citibank Europe PLC as payment agent, quickly, conveniently and at lower cost than generally incurred when encashing sterling cheques overseas. Citibank is the leading provider within the UK, for regular low value cross-border payments, including government pensions, interest and dividends.
The cost of using the service is related to the value of each dividend payment, as follows:
| Dividend value | Charge |
|---|
| Up to £10 | £3 |
| £10.01 to £2,500 | £5 |
| £2,500.01 to £10,000 | £10 |
| £10,000.01 to £15,000 | £15 |
The range of countries for which the service is currently available is:

| Antigua & Barbuda | Germany | New Zealand |
| Australia | Greece | Norway |
