CHANGES IN PENSION INSURANCE PLAN
It is a common practice that the eligibility age as a condition for exercising the right to pension is continuously increasing both at home and abroad. For that reason, the insurants need to have the accurate information on the eligibility age and the necessary years of service in order to claim the right to pension.
REALISATION OF RIGHTS TO MULTIPLE PENSIONS
In Serbia, the insurants can claim rights to only one pension, either old age or survivor pension, whereas abroad, one can gain rights to both.
Please be informed that in the Netherlands and Switzerland there are special conditions for claiming the rights to old age and survivor pension.

PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION WHEN FILLING IN THE APPLICATION FOR CHOOSING YOUR PENSION OPTION (proportional or individual pension)
By signing the International Agreement on Social Insurance, Serbia has acquired a lot of benefits in procedures for realization of rights to pension for its citizens living in the countries bound by the agreement.
In relation to that, we ask you to pay attention to the following rules:
- The right to the individual pension, in case when the insurants have reached the eligible age for the pension in both countries
- The right to the proportional old age pension (early old age pension) can be claimed by a client who hasn’t met the conditions for the individual pension because, in one of the countries in which they acquired their years of service, they haven’t reached the eligible age for realization of rights to pension. For example, in this case, and especially with holders of French and Italian pension insurance, our RFPIO and the respective foreign insurance fund will provide the insured with a form in which they are to choose the type of pension they would like to receive and that choice needs to be verified by their personal signature in the designated part of the form.

PLEASE BE INFORMED THAT THE HOLDERS OF ITALIAN INSURANCE SHOULD PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION WHEN FILLING IN THE APPLICATION FOR CHOOSING THEIR PENSION TYPE BECAUSE BY DOING SO, THEIR CHOICE CANNOT BE REVOKED, AND IN CASE AN INSURANT HASN’T REACHED THE ELIGIBILE MINIMUM OF 20 YEARS OF SERVICE, THEY WILL PERMANENTLY LOOSE THEIR RIGHT TO PENSION WITH ITALIAN INSURANCE FUND.
