It depends on the specific circumstances of your Roth 401(k) and Roth IRA. In general, if you roll over funds directly from a Roth 401(k) to a Roth IRA, you should not owe taxes on the transfer. However, if there are any pre-tax contributions or earnings in your Roth 401(k), you may owe taxes on those amounts when rolling over. It's always best to consult with a tax professional or financial advisor to understand the tax implications of your specific situation.
