Last working day in UK was 04 06 2019, leaving UK on 06 06 2019, started work abroad on 10 06 2019, still working since then. Do I qualify for Class 2 NIC?

Hi Antanas1963,
To be entitled to pay voluntary Class 2 National Insurance contributions whilst overseas, a person must be employed or self-employed overseas and were normally employed or self-employed in the UK before their departure. Full details are given in our leaflet NI38 ‘Social Security Abroad’ which you may obtain via Social Security abroad: NI38
If you would like to apply to pay voluntary National Insurance contributions whilst overseas please complete and return our CF83 application form after reading leaflet NI38 ‘Social Security Abroad’.  You will find the CF83 via Apply to pay voluntary National Insurance contributions when abroad (CF83).
Before applying to pay voluntary contributions I would advise to check your entitlement to a UK State Pension by obtaining a Pension Forecast.  You may obtain one via Check your State Pension forecast.
Thank you.
