Pension age

Men qualify for an old-age pension at 65. Women are still inside the čl. 170 transition, which moves one step closer to 65 every year through 2029.

Men: 65

Men qualify for an old-age pension at 65 years, with 15 godina of pension service (čl. 38 ZOMO).

Women: the transition

Women are still inside the čl. 170 transition, which moves one step closer to the general age of 65 every year. The table below shows the required age BY THE YEAR IT IS REACHED, not by year of birth.

Women’s pension age by year the age is reached (čl. 170(1) ZOMO)
Year the age is reachedPension age
202563 years and 9 months
202664 years
202764 years and 3 months
202864 years and 6 months
202964 years and 9 months

The table is read by the YEAR THE AGE IS REACHED, not the year of birth — the same reading convention neighbouring systems use for their own women’s transition ladders.

From 2030 the table no longer applies and the general rule at čl. 38 ZOMO governs: 65 years of age, the same as for men.

There is no route to an old-age pension on years of service alone, regardless of age — no such provision was found in the articles of ZOMO reviewed for this page.
