The pension recalculation from 1 September 2026-th is not provided. However, a portion of Ukrainians may expect a recalculation. We are talking about retirees who have reached a certain age category and are eligible for an additional payment.
The monthly supplement will be assigned to older people who have crossed another age threshold, but there is a key restriction: the total amount of their pension must not exceed 10 340,35 hryvnias.
The sizes of age bonuses are distributed as follows:
From 70 to 74 years – an additional +300 hryvnias;
From 75 to 79 years – an additional +456 hryvnias;
From 80 years and older – an additional +570 hryvnias.
There is no need to submit separate applications or visit the Pension Fund of Ukraine (PFU) — everything is calculated automatically. However, it is worth noting that the money starts accruing not from the beginning of the calendar month, but directly from the date of birth.
If the 70-year birthday falls on the 1 day, the retiree will immediately receive the full 300 hryvnias. If the birthday was celebrated, for example, on the 20-th, then for the current month only a proportional part for the remaining days (for 10 days until the end of the month) will be accrued. Starting from the next month, the payment will be received in full.
At the same time, the average pension as of 1 July was 7 272,68 hryvnias. If you divide all pensioners into groups by the size of the payment, the largest group will be those who receive up to 5 000 hryvnias.
Thus:
From 3 001 to 4 000 hryvnias receive 2 398 705 people (average pension – 3 581,58 hryvnias).
From 4 001 to 5 000 hryvnias receive 1 719 253 people (average pension – 4 525,91 hryvnias).
Together these two groups cover more than 4,1 million citizens (over 41% of all pensioners).
The middle segment (from 5 001 to 10 000 hryvnias):
5 001 – 6 000 hryvnias – 1 487 429 people (average 5 378,23 hryvnias).
6 001 – 7 000 hryvnias – 827 131 person (average 6 450,87 hryvnias).
7 001 – 8 000 hryvnias – 566 649 people (average 7 475,07 hryvnias).
8 001 – 9 000 hryvnias – 426 819 people (average 8 476,89 hryvnias).
9 001 – 10 000 hryvnias – 335 127 people (average 9 469,24 hryvnias).
“Elite” pensions (over 30 000 hryvnias): Payments above this threshold are received by only 29 530 people. However, the average pension in this category is very high and amounts to 47 842,87 hryvnias.
Some Ukrainian pensioners are eligible for a special pension supplement for distinguished service to the state. Its size ranges from 23% to 40% of the subsistence minimum for people who have lost the ability to work.
