Pensions and social benefits to be indexed by 6.84% starting 1 April 2026

The Government of the Republic of Moldova

The Government has approved the indexation of pensions and social benefits by 6.84%, starting 1 April 2026.

Thus, as of April 1, the minimum old-age pension will amount to 3,264.66 lei, the minimum pension for people with at least 40 years of contribution record will reach 3,525.72 lei, and the minimum disability pension will range between 1,632.33 and 2,448.50 lei, depending on the degree of disability.

In addition, all pensions calculated in accordance with the legislation will be increased by a fixed amount of 51.33 lei. For people whose pensions are below the established minimum level, the difference will be covered through a solidarity supplement financed from the state budget.

At the same time, during today’s meeting, the Government approved the decision updating the valorization coefficients of insured income and the cumulative indexation coefficients for pensions. The new provisions will allow a more accurate adjustment of insured incomes to the evolution of the average wage in the economy, contributing to a fairer calculation of pensions and to maintaining the purchasing power of beneficiaries.

“All these recalculations will be carried out ex officio by the National Social Insurance House, without the need to present any documents or applications. The estimated cost for the indexation of social benefits exceeds 2 billion lei, and for the fixed-amount increase it is approximately 300 million lei. Through this project we protect the purchasing power of pensioners and ensure a decent standard of living for vulnerable groups,” said the Minister of Labour and Social Protection, Natalia Plugaru.
