How to make online pension payments abroad

In light of the war in Ukraine and the numerous challenges it has brought, Ukrainians who have gone abroad and received temporary protection can remotely issue or resume their pension payments. According to the Ministry of Reintegration, this process can be carried out online through the portal of the Pension Fund of Ukraine (PFU).

Who can issue a pension?

Citizens who have reached retirement age can apply for a pension for the first time, as well as those whose payment was suspended during martial law. This innovation allows Ukrainians to maintain financial stability despite being outside the country.

How to apply for a pension online?

To issue or renew a pension remotely, you need to follow a few simple steps:

  1. Obtaining an electronic signature (KEP) : This is the first step that provides access to all functions of the electronic cabinet.
  2. Login to your personal account on the PFU portal : Log in to your account using the received electronic signature.
  3. Applying for a pension : In the "About pension" section, select the "Application for a pension" tab and select the appropriate type of pension (for example, an old-age pension).
  4. Filling out the questionnaire : Enter all the necessary information.
  5. Attaching documents : Attach scanned copies of documents (passport, identification code, temporary protection document, etc.).
  6. Data verification : Make sure that the entered information is correct and sign the application using the KEP.
  7. Sending an application : Send an electronic application to the PFU.

After that, information about the processing of your application and the corresponding decision will be available in your personal account.

Post registration of pension

For those who prefer traditional methods, it is possible to apply for a pension by mail. Here is the procedure:

  1. Obtaining documents for temporary protection : Contact the competent authorities of the country of your stay to obtain the necessary documents.
  2. Translation and legalization : All documents must be translated and legalized through the nearest Consulate of Ukraine.
  3. Writing an application : Submit an application for receiving or restoring a pension by attaching translated and legalized documents.
  4. Sending by mail : Send the application together with the documents to the Pension Fund of Ukraine (PFU).

This system allows Ukrainians abroad not only to keep access to their pension payments, but also to simplify registration procedures. Despite the challenges associated with the war, Ukrainians have the opportunity to ensure their financial stability thanks to convenient online tools and traditional ways of filing documents.
