The Pension Fund of Ukraine announced new requirements for the insurance experience for pensioners.
In 2025, the Pension Fund of Ukraine provided clarifications regarding the conditions for retirement pensions. According to current legislation, to receive a pension at the age of 60, one must have at least 32 years of insurance experience.
According to the Pension Fund, citizens who do not have sufficient insurance experience by the age of 60 can rightfully receive a pension immediately after acquiring the necessary experience, without waiting for the age of 63.
'If you work after reaching 60 and acquire 32 years of insurance experience in 6 months, you may apply for the retirement pension as soon as the condition is met,' the Pension Fund notes.
It is important to note that the necessary insurance experience is verified on the date a person reaches the appropriate age. This provision is enshrined in the Law of Ukraine 'On Mandatory State Pension Insurance', which regulates the age criteria for retirement - 60, 63, or 65 years - depending on the acquired insurance experience.
We also remind that Ukrainians can find out the size of their future pension: how to buy experience and what the price is.
