You can withdraw cash from your investment ISA anytime. But be sure it’s the right move for you – remember, returns are more likely to be seen when you invest over the long term (5+ years).

If all your cash is invested, you’ll need to sell your investment(s), or some units/shares in your investments, to free up cash to withdraw. You can withdraw the full balance of available cash held in your investment ISA, or just part of it, without paying any charge.

Most withdrawals are paid to your bank account within 1 working day. However, some withdrawals need a little more work and could take 5-10 working days.

Once you’ve withdrawn cash from your investment ISA, you can only pay it back in if you’ve enough unused ISA allowance left.
