FAQ
How does the gradual delay work?
From January 2025, men move from 60 to 63 and women previously at 55 move to 58, one month later for every four months of birth; women previously at 50 move to 55, one month for every two months.
Can I retire early?
Up to three years early, but not before the old age (60, 55 or 50) and only with the minimum contribution years. You can also defer by up to three years.
