✈️ Returning to Korea
A map for anyone winding down life in Australia to move back to Korea — residency, Australian super and the National Pension, double taxation, winding down Korean assets and remittance, and return status.
Reading order: the big picture → super & pension → tax → assets & remittance → status.
Before you go — the big picture
- Moving back to Korea — super, property, tax
The order that decides the tax when money goes home
- Scared of tax on moving back to Korea?
The NTS return-migrant consult — facts over vague fear
- Tax residency, Korea vs Australia
Which country taxes your worldwide income — the starting point
Super & pension — retirement cash flow
- What happens to your Australian super when you leave
You can't take it with you — preservation and access timing
- Can you draw Korea's National Pension while living in Australia?
Retirement cash flow abroad — pension x super x FX
- Overseas assets and crypto in the Basic Pension test?
Basic Pension ≠ National Pension — a filed bill and return-migrant planning

- Australian CGT and the 5-year rule
The CGT discount and residency-switch timing
- Korea-Australia inheritance and gift tax

Winding down assets & remittance

Loans, CGT, residency — the after-tax, after-remittance, after-FX amount
- Sending money from Australia to Korea
Limits, costs, gift tax — the real limits sit on the receiving side
