What happens if a position I hold issues a dividend?

Answer

When DEGIRO receives a notification of a dividend, it will be shown on your Portfolio tab under the Upcoming Dividends section. After it is paid, the listing will be removed from that section and paid into your Money Market Fund. A record of this can then be found in your Account Statement, which can be found in your Activity tab.

Dividend payments from stock positions will be paid to your account with any applicable withholding taxes deducted. On the ex-date the respective value will be displayed in your account. Typically the funds will be added to your account one working day after the pay date.

It is possible to receive a dividend in stock rather than cash if the company itself offers the possibility as well as the custodian. This option is only available for products listed on European exchanges.

If you want to make use of this option, contact the service desk by e-mail within 3 working days of the ex-dividend date In the case that the default option would be to receive the dividend in cash, there is an additional cost for this service. Please see our Fee Schedule and Custody Fee Schedule for details.
