Starting with April 1, the minimum old-age pension will be 2,278.80 lei. The minimum disability pension for severe disability will be 1,709.10 lei, for moderate disability – 1,595.16 lei, while for mild disability – 1,139.40 lei, IPN reports.

Under a draft decision approved by the Government, the pensions calculated in accordance with the law on the public pension system are raised by a fixed sum of 171.71 lei as from April 1, 2022.

If the size of the pension calculated in accordance with the law is lower than the minimum pension for the given category, the difference between the two values will be covered with state budget funds in the form of a solidarity supplement. The solidarity supplement is a component of the pension that is not indexed. This varies annually depending on the indexation and increase in the calculated pension and the evolution of the minimum pension.
