In Ukraine, special pensions will be restricted: who will be affected from 2025.
The Cabinet of Ministers has limited special pensions during martial law
The Government of Ukraine has decided to impose restrictions on the payments of special pensions that exceed the amount of 23.61 thousand hryvnias during the martial law in 2025. This is stipulated by resolution No. 1 dated January 3.
For those who have lost their ability to work and receive a pension much higher than the threshold of 10 living minimums, the government has established reducing coefficients.
According to the document, the calculation of the coefficients will be as follows:
- for pensions from 10 to 11 living minimums - coefficient of 0.5
- for pensions from 11 to 13 living minimums - coefficient of 0.4
- for pensions from 13 to 17 living minimums - coefficient of 0.3
- for pensions from 17 to 21 living minimums - coefficient of 0.2
In cases where payments exceed the amount of 21 living minimums (49.58 thousand hryvnias), a coefficient of 0.1 will apply.
It should be noted that the restrictions do not apply to participants of the anti-terrorist operation, individuals who participated in the defense of Ukraine during the aggression of Russia, as well as to pensions in case of loss of the breadwinner for the families of the deceased.
