I will turn 60 in February 2026 and have 33 years and 2 months of insurance record. Am I entitled to an old-age pension, and what documents do I need to submit?
✅ Yes, you are entitled.
🔰 According to the Law of Ukraine dated July 9, 2003 No. 1058-IV “On Compulsory State Pension Insurance”, the retirement age (60, 63, or 65 years) depends on the amount of insurance record acquired by a person. Based on these indicators, a corresponding length of insurance record is established for each age, which grants the right to an old-age pension.
✴️ In accordance with Article 26 of this Law, the length of insurance record required to be granted an old-age pension in 2026 is:
🔘 upon reaching 60 years of age — at least 33 years;
🔘 upon reaching 63 years of age — at least 23 years;
🔘 upon reaching 65 years of age — at least 15 years.
❗️ Important
☝️ If a person reached the age of 60 / 63 / 65 in 2025, but applies for a pension in 2026, the required insurance record is 32 / 22 / 15 years, respectively.
