Pensioners must confirm their identity annually: what will happen to payments.

According to the new resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers No. 299, Ukrainian pensioners must annually confirm their identity to receive pension payments from the Pension Fund starting from 2025. If this requirement is not met, payments may be suspended, and funds transferred for safekeeping to the Fund.

According to inkorr.com: The Pension Fund now receives information about individuals who have not confirmed their identity, including internally displaced persons and residents of temporarily occupied territories. With new procedures and requirements, identification has become even stricter. According to Resolution No. 765 from June 2025, the functions of the Pension Fund have been expanded, including the appointment and payment of social assistance, leading to the introduction of new procedures for recipients.

Non-compliance may lead to account blocking, and the expansion of the Pension Fund's functions aims to improve social assistance payment procedures.
