How long does an ISA transfer take?

How long does an ISA transfer take?

ISA Transfers should take no longer than: 

  • 5 business days for an internal transfer from one cash ISA to another cash ISA. 
  • Allow up to 14 business days for an external transfer (different provider) from one cash ISA to another cash ISA.  To switch ISA providers, contact the ISA provider you want to move to and fill out an ISA transfer form to move your account.
  • 30 calendar days for transfers to / or from stocks and shares ISAs.

Should a Cash ISA transfer not be completed within the expected timeline interest is backdated, so you will not miss out

If your current provider uses the manual transferring process, this process could take a considerably longer time to process as we are relying on the other provider sending us both, your transaction history list and your balance.
