They can retire three years before the standard retirement age, respectively, at 56 years and six months.

In the public pensions system, the quantum of the old age pension is calculated based on the retirement contributions up to date, made during the labour activity of the applicant and of the incomes which represented the calculation base for the social insurances contributions.

To benefit from pension starting the date of reaching the retirement age, the application and the needed acts are submitted to the Territorial Social Insurances House from the residence place in a 30-day period. If the application for retirement is submitted by exceeding the term of 30 days, the old age pension will be provided starting the date when the last necessary act is presented.
