Pension abroad

Are you retired and do you live abroad? Then we will also pay your pension in your country of residence. Your pension payments will commence on the first day of the month in which you retire. You will receive this benefit for as long as you live.

We will pay your pension from the Netherlands. It is not possible for you to ‘transfer’ your pension to another country.

What do you have to do?
You are required to send us a 'Proof of Life Certificate' (Attestation de vita) once a year. If you don't do this, your pension benefits will be discontinued.

  • Fill in the Proof of Life Certificate (pdf).
  • Have the form signed by a competent authority (municipality or notary).
  • Send the completed form, with an official stamp or statement of authenticity, to the pension fund.

You can find all your retirement and AOW benefit details on Mijnpensioenoverzicht.nl. To view your details, you need to log in with your DigiD code.
