Is work abroad included in pensionable service: the procedure has been changed since 2024

 Does work abroad count towards pension experience: procedure changed in 2024

How work experience is counted if you worked abroad

In order to retire, Ukrainians need to accumulate a sufficient amount of insurance experience. Due to Russian aggression, many Ukrainians are forced to live and work abroad. Will work abroad be counted as years worked? This is a question that interests many.

Does work abroad count towards work experience: what changes will there be in 2024

In 2024, amendments were made to the Law “On Compulsory State Pension Insurance”. The amendments to the law allow insurance experience accumulated abroad, except for Russia, to be taken into account when calculating pensions. Also, pensions from republics unrecognized by UN countries, such as Transnistria, will not be counted.

That is, when calculating pensions, such foreign insurance experience will be taken into account even if a pension agreement has not been concluded between the countries.

But such experience will be conditional and will only be counted if the years worked are not enough for retirement. It will not affect the amount of the pension.
