Required minimum distributions (RMDs) are the minimum amount that you are required to withdraw from certain types of retirement accounts each year once you reach a certain age. RMDs apply to traditional individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and 401(k) plans, as well as other types of retirement accounts that allow you to defer paying taxes on your contributions and earnings until you withdraw the money in retirement.
