Hi @Jinny,

Singapore office does not offer Share dealing account, therefore we won't be able to transfer your shares over. Please reach out to helpdesk.uk@ig.com for further details on keeping an ISA without adding funds.

If you wish to transfer your shares out of IG you can follow the steps on this link:

Thanks Arvin.  I am not too fussed about share dealing account.  I just want to keep my ISA without being forced to close my positions.  I have emailed helpdesk about this and they're the one who is adamant that I can't even keep my ISA and must close out my positions and close my account!  Can you please verify this?

Hi, I just moved to Singapore from the UK and your helpdesk just told me that it is not possible to keep my ISA account and that I have to close all my positions!  Is this true?  Based on your last comment, it seems like I should be able to keep my ISA as long as I don't add funds, which is fine by me.  Asking me to close my positions forcefully is asking me to take a massive loss due to the markets being in a slump!  Also, if keeping my ISA account is not possible, can I at least transfer them to another ISA provider that is willing to accept the transfer?
