Pension System in Latvia
Latvia has a three-pillar pension system where the first pillar pension contributions are mandatory, partly mandatory for the second pillar and voluntary for the third pillar pensions. The three-pillar system ensures the successful separation of state and individuals’ responsibilities for their retirement pensions. In essence, the size of a retirement pension largely depends on the amount of contributions, the period over which the contributions are made, and the selected pension plan. That is why you should invest in the 2nd and 3rd pillar pensions already now.
1st Pillar Pensions
The state guarantees 1st pillar pensions for all residents who have been making social contributions for a period of at least 10 years. Part of the contributions is used to pay pensions to the existing pensioners. When an individual reaches retirement age, his or her pension is calculated taking into account the person’s length of service and the amount of contributions made.
