Pension payment dates 2024 and 2025
We pay earnings-related pensions on the following days (when banks are open):
- Church, Kela and Bank of Finland employee pensions are paid on the 1st day of each month.
- Local government and wellbeing services counties pensions are paid on the 3rd day and State pensions on the 20th day of each month. If the payment day falls on a weekend or public holiday, the pension can generally be withdrawn on the previous weekday.
The payment day of earnings-related pensions cannot be moved to the previous month because the right to a pension exists on a monthly basis. Under pension legislation, earnings-related can be paid only once during each calendar month.
If you have not received you pension into your bank account on the payment day by 9 a.m., check our news page to see if there are for example any disruptions in the payment transactions between banks. As a rule, we will notify of any disturbances on our website. It’s a good idea to also check if your bank has published any disturbance notices.
