In 2025, some Ukrainian pensioners can expect an increase in their pension to 3,758 hryvnias.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To receive this increase, three main requirements must be met: having a full insurance record, being 65 years old, and not being employed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to current Ukrainian legislation, since 2018, the state has guaranteed that the pension for persons who have reached 65 years of age will be at least 40% of the minimum wage. This is stipulated in Part 2, Article 28 of Law No. 1058, “On Compulsory State Pension Insurance.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Categories of citizens entitled to an increased pension:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Persons over 65 years of age;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pensioners who receive a pension for age, disability, loss of a breadwinner, or for length of service;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
women with at least 30 years of insurance record, men – with 35 years;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pensioners whose pension, together with additional payments, does not exceed 40% of the minimum wage.
In 2025, the minimum wage remained stable; however, from March 1, pensions for the above category of pensioners were indexed to 3,758 hryvnias. This became possible thanks to the Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 209, which concerns the indexation of payments and support for vulnerable groups of the population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What about people who have not yet reached the age of 65?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As pension expert Serhiy Korobkin explained, if a pensioner meets all three requirements (age, insurance experience, and unemployment), then their pension will automatically be increased to 3,758 hryvnias, even if they reach 65 years of age after the indexation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was previously mentioned that Ukrainians may be eligible for a significant pension increase under certain conditions, as well as the possibility of receiving two pensions simultaneously, which can enhance financial support for specific categories of the population. Additionally, the option of providing an extra payment of 2,000 hryvnias to a particular group of pensioners is being considered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
