ISA transfer
Moving your ISAs to us is straightforward and gives you access to all the benefits of our award-winning Stocks and Shares ISA.
Important information - please keep in mind that the value of investments can go down as well as up, so you may get back less than you invest. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and all tax rules may change in the future. This information is not a personal recommendation for any particular investment. If you are unsure about the suitability of an investment you should speak to one of Fidelity’s advisers or an authorised financial adviser of your choice.
Transfer an ISA
You might be thinking about transferring your ISAs held with other providers to us. Or perhaps you want to know a bit more about our transfer process. If you like the idea of having access to the benefits of our award winning Stocks and Shares ISA and a wide range of funds, shares, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and investment trusts, then transferring your ISAs could be worth considering. We can also give you a helping hand with any exit fees your current provider may charge. T&Cs apply.
Easier
Just one company to deal with, saving you time and hassle.
A wealth of choice
Wide range of funds and shares giving you more ways to reach your investment goals.
Lower costs
It could be cheaper, if our service fees are less than you're currently paying.
Exit fee cover
We’ll cover up to £500 if your current provider(s) charge exit fees. T&Cs apply.*
Starting your ISA transfer
Our transfer process makes it easy to bring your investments together - just tell us where they’re currently held and we’ll do the rest.
Simple
Once you request a transfer, we’ll contact your provider and arrange for your investments (or cash) to be moved to your Fidelity account.
Stay invested
We’ll keep you invested in your current funds or shares if we have the same ones on our platform.
Flexible
If we don’t have the same ones, your investments will be sent to us as cash, which you can then invest as you wish.
Important information - If you transfer share classes that are not supported by Fidelity, they will be sold and moved to us as cash. If your investments are moved to us as cash, you will be out of the market while your money is being transferred, so you could miss out on growth and income if the market rises during this time.
To learn more about our straightforward, flexible pricing, please visit our fees and charges page.
How to transfer an ISA
You can transfer your ISA following these straightforward steps. If you don’t have an ISA with us, you’ll need to open one first, we’ll help you to do that. If you do have one, you’ll need to login.
Step 1: Get your details ready
You’ll need the account number and provider name of the ISA you want to transfer to us. If you don’t already have an ISA with us, you’ll also need your National Insurance number.
Step 2: Tell us where the ISA is
Give us the details of the ISA that you want to transfer (the ones you collected in step 1) and let us know whether it’s a Stocks and Shares ISA or Cash ISA. We’ll then contact the existing provider and arrange the transfer. Remember to read any small print before you go ahead.
Step 3: Wait for confirmation
We’ll be in contact once the process has been completed, which can take up to 8 weeks. Or you can track your ISA transfer in your online account. Once your money has been transferred, you can keep it invested in the same funds and shares if they’re available on our platform. If they’re unavailable, your money will be transferred as cash and you can choose your investments.
How long does an ISA transfer take?
If your current providers are using an industry-accepted, up-to-date transfer service, then the transfer should take less than eight weeks.
Please remember that once the transfer has begun, you’ll be unable to switch, top up, or sell the investments you’re moving until the process is complete.
We’ll let you know when everything is done.

What are the Fidelity ISA transfer rules?
Transferring a Cash ISA to us
Your ISA will be moved into your Fidelity Stocks and Shares ISA as cash, which you can then choose to invest how you wish. If you selected Cash ISA, but are actually transferring a Stocks and Shares ISA, this may result in your investments being sold.
Transferring a Stocks and Shares ISA to us
If we offer the same investments you currently have, they will be transferred to Fidelity as they are.
If your investments are in a different share class to the one we offer, we will work with your current provider to convert them into the share class that we do have. Where this is possible, we will try to convert those investments into the cheapest share class available on our platform.
If this isn't possible, or the investments you hold with the other provider are not available with us at all, they will be sold and then transferred as cash to your Fidelity ISA. You can then invest that cash how you wish.
When moving an ISA to Fidelity you have to move all the investments held within it, whether it is the current tax year, previous tax years or both.
Please note: in addition to funds, we also offer a selection of individual shares that you can now hold on our platform in an ISA. View the shares available on our platform. Over time, we’ll continue to add more shares to our range.
If you hold any shares in an ISA that you’re planning to move to Fidelity:
- Please check the shares available on our platform before starting the transfer process as we may only be able to move across shares that are on this list.
- If you start the transfer process and have shares we don’t currently offer, we’ll have to sell them and move them across as cash within your ISA. You can then invest that cash into any of the funds or shares in our range.
Does transferring an ISA count as opening a new one?
As long as you use the right process, moving your ISA from one provider to another does not count as opening a new ISA. Fill out the transfer forms and speak to your new provider if you have any questions. They should do all the hard work for you by contacting your current provider to move your money.
If you decide to withdraw money yourself to make the transfer, this is classed as opening a new account, and you may lose all your tax benefits.
How many times can I move my ISA?
You can transfer your ISA as many times as you’d like at any time. Moving your ISA to another provider will not affect your ISA allowance, but you may be charged exit fees depending on your provider’s policies. At Fidelity, we cover any ISA transfer exit fees your current provider may charge, up to £500 per person. T&Cs apply.
Why should I transfer my ISA?
There are many reasons why you might consider transferring your ISA.
- Consolidating your ISAs could make it easier to manage your finances.
- Some providers offer a wider selection of investment options than others.
- You’ve shopped around and found a provider with lower fees.
- A Stocks and Shares ISA could give you potential returns that you may not get from a Cash ISA, although this isn’t guaranteed.
- Having new saving goals might encourage you to switch to an ISA that is better suited to your needs.
Whatever your reasons, the decision to transfer your ISA is personal. So, it’s always best to do your research before you make the choice.
Which individual shares can I transfer to Fidelity?
Check the shares available on our platform. Over time, we’ll continue to add more shares to our range.
If you hold any shares in an ISA that you’re planning to move to Fidelity:
- Please check the shares available on our platform before starting the transfer process as we may only be able to move across shares that are on this list.
- If you start the transfer process and have shares we don’t currently offer, we’ll have to sell them and move them across as cash within your ISA. You can then invest that cash into any of the funds or shares in our range.
When can I transfer my ISA?
There are no deadlines when it comes to transferring your ISA, so you can transfer your ISA anytime.
How long does an ISA transfer take?
An ISA transfer can usually take up to eight weeks to complete but this can vary depending on the handling times of the fund groups or platforms involved in the process. This will also depend on whether they are processed by post or electronically.
Can you transfer a Cash ISA to a Stocks and Shares ISA?
You can transfer the cash within a Cash ISA into Fidelity's Stocks and Shares ISA where you will get the chance to invest in a wide range of funds,shares investments trusts and exchange-traded funds.
Can you transfer an ISA to another person?
No, you cannot transfer an ISA to another person.

If you transfer or re-register your assets to another provider within this 18-month period, Fidelity reserves the right to reclaim any Cash Back payment that was made to you as part of this Offer. For the avoidance doubt, if during this period you link to a Fidelity adviser and your assets are transferred to Fidelity FundsNetworkTM this does not constitute a transfer to another provider. Fidelity reclaim any Cash Back by withholding an amount prior to transferring or re-registering your assets to another provider. We will not reclaim any Cash Back from assets within a SIPP, other pension or ISA. Withdrawals from your account/s or income payment will not count as transfers for the purposes of this condition and will not result in our reclaiming your cash back payment.

Cash Back Offer – terms and conditions
This Cash Back Offer (the “Offer”) is available when you apply to transfer your pension(s), ISAs or other investment account assets between 7th July 2022 and midnight on the 6th October 2022.
- The promoter of this offer is Financial Administration Services Limited (“Fidelity”), Beech Gate, Millfield Lane, Lower Kingswood, Tadworth, Surrey, KT20 6RP.
- Subject to section 5, the Offer is available to anyone who completes a transfer of their assets from other providers to Fidelity Personal Investing. This offer is not open to those that transfer via an adviser or intermediary. To transfer assets, you must submit a correctly completed form online or by paper by 6th October 2022.
- Cash Back will be paid in the amounts noted in the table in section 9. If you transfer less than £10,000 you will not receive any Cash Back. The minimum transfer value is £100 unless the transfer is from another provider and you’re immediately going to start taking money from it, then the minimum is £50,000.
- The following types of transfer will qualify for the Offer:
a. Cash transfer within ISAs and pension products – If you transfer in cash within ISAs and pensions, the provider you are transferring from will sell your investments and send the proceeds directly to us. We will hold them as cash within your account until you decide what you would like to invest in.
b. Re-registration – this involves a change to the fund or share register to show that Fidelity has taken over the administration of your investment/s. We can re-register your investments if the same investments are available through our Investment Platform, and they are able to be re-registered*. If you hold a particular share class of an investment that we do not offer, we will sell your investment after we re-register it and move the proceeds into a share class that is available on our Investment Platform. This switch can take up to two business days, and your money will not be invested during this time. If you hold an investment that is not available through our Investment Platform or is otherwise unable to be re-registered* it will only be able to be moved to us as a cash transfer (see above) if it is held in a pension or ISA. If the cash transfer is not within a pension or ISA, that amount will not count toward your total for the Offer. A re-registration does not count as a “disposal” for capital gains tax purposes, even if we switch your investment into a different share class. Please note that the minimum SIPP re-registration value is £100.
* Re-registration is not available for some products on the Fidelity Investment Platform. For example, a number of offshore funds cannot be re-registered. - This Offer excludes:
