I am Resident in Singapore which has a DT agreement with UK, I am now claiming my UK State Pension. Do I need to take any action with regards to HMRC eg do I need to acquire Nil Tax Rate for this pension and if so how should I go about it?

Hi 

A State Pension is a UK National Insurance benefit and is taxable, but usually paid without deduction of tax.  
To ensue that it is not taxable, please download and complete the DT individual form at Double Taxation: Treaty Relief (Form DT-Individual) and send the signed and dated form to the Singapore tax office for validation.  
They will return the validated form to you, so that you can send it to HMRC at the address on the front page of the form.

Thank you
