Pension provision
This section covers the other end of the funded-pension account: not what goes in, but when and how you get it out — the retirement age, the payout modes, and whether an early route exists. Contribution rates are covered on their own page.
Two laws, one account
The funded pension account is governed by the Law on Funded Pension — it sets the contribution rates (covered on their own page) and the rules for drawing the balance. The one rule it borrows from elsewhere is the retirement age itself, which is not stated by this Law at all: it is cross-referenced from the State Pensions Law.
These pages cover the other end of the account — not what goes in, but when you can access it, how you can take it out, and whether an early route exists. The material follows the statute’s own text and has not been through our final sign-off.
Where to start
- Retirement age — when access to the account opens.
- How the payout works — the three ways to take the balance.
- Early access — whether such a route exists.
- FAQ — short answers.
The contribution rate, briefly
Three parties fund the account: the employee (2%), the employer (2%) and the state (tiered by annual income). The pension contribution page covers that side in full — this section does not repeat it.
