In 2025, pensioners in Ukraine who reach the age of 65 and have the required insurance record will be guaranteed a pension that will amount to no less than 40% of the minimum wage.

The Pension Fund of Ukraine (PFU) has announced the amounts that Ukrainians can expect next year. Additional payments for pensioners over 70 years old will also continue and will be credited automatically.

According to current legislation, individuals who reach 65 years old and have sufficient insurance experience (30 years for women and 35 years for men) have the right to a pension that cannot be less than 40% of the minimum salary in the country.

In 2024, the minimum salary in Ukraine is 8,000 hryvnias, which means that the minimum pension for individuals with such experience cannot be less than 3,200 hryvnias. If the pension amount does not reach this level, the pensioner receives an automatic supplement that compensates for the difference between the actual pension and the minimum established by law.

According to forecasts from the Ministry of Social Policy, the system of supplements for pensioners who have reached 65 years of age will remain unchanged in 2025. This means that the amount of payments will stay at the 2024 level. If the pension is below 40% of the minimum wage, an automatic supplement will be credited to reach this level, without the need to contact the Pension Fund.

In addition to the basic pension, pensioners receive extra allowances based on their age:

  • Individuals aged 70 to 74 receive an additional 300 hryvnias.
  • Pensioners aged 75 to 79 receive an increase of 456 hryvnias.
  • Individuals over 80 years old receive an increase of 570 hryvnias.

These allowances are also credited automatically and are fixed. In 2025, no changes to the amount of these supplements are expected; however, adjustments may occur in the event of significant economic changes in the country.
