The retirement age for military personnel will be raised later. Latest news on the issue of increasing the retirement age for military personnel Draft law on increasing the retirement age for military personnel
On January 1, 2019, the implementation of pension reform begins in Russia, which involves a gradual increase in age. However, this increase will only partially affect military personnel. We will tell you exactly what benefits will remain for this category of citizens.
From the article you will learn:
What is the current procedure for the retirement of military personnel?
The general rules for providing pensions to citizens of the Russian Federation are set out in Federal Law No. 166-FZ of December 15, 2001. At the same time, pension provision for military personnel is regulated by a special regulatory document. We are talking about the Law of the Russian Federation of February 12, 1993 N 4468-I, which determines the procedure for the retirement of military personnel, as well as employees of internal affairs bodies, state fire departments, units of the penal system and other similar organizations. A project to increase the retirement age for military personnel has not yet been presented and for now the previous procedure continues to apply for them.
According to Art. 3 166-FZ, military personnel, subject to certain conditions, have the right to receive two types of pensions simultaneously.
- "Military" pension. Includes payments for length of service in military service or for disability acquired as a result of such service.
- "Civilian" pension. It is paid in the same manner as other citizens of Russia, in accordance with 400-FZ and 166-FZ.
Professions and types of work that give the right to receive an early retirement pension in old age
Payment of "military" pension
The current procedure for determining the size and conditions of pension provision for military personnel is prescribed in Art. 13 of Law No. 4468-I. This regulatory document determines that a long-service pension is established if a citizen fulfills one of the conditions.
- Duration of military service is more than 20 years. This service includes work in internal affairs bodies, departments for control of the sale of narcotic substances and the execution of punishments, fire departments, as well as troops that are part of the National Guard of the Russian Federation. If during the course of his career an employee has worked in several of the listed organizations, the length of service in them is summed up to determine the total length of service.
- Military personnel discharged from service upon reaching the age limit for service, health reasons or in connection with organizational and staffing measures and reaching 45 years of age on the day of dismissal. Moreover, the total length of work experience is more than 25 years, of which at least half, that is, 12.5 years, was given to service in the army or other departments listed in Art. 13 of Law No. 4468-I. The right to receive a military pension on this basis is given to citizens who leave service not of their own free will, but due to objective reasons. For example, these include health conditions that do not allow continued service, reduction or optimization of the number of personnel. For such persons, the right to “military” pension provision arises when they reach 45 years of age. The same right is given to military personnel who have reached the age limit for military service, which is determined in accordance with Art. 49 of the Federal Law of March 28, 1998 N 53-FZ. Depending on gender, rank and other circumstances, it can range from 45 to 70 years.
Military personnel with serious health problems receive a disability pension instead of the usual “military” pension. A citizen has the right to apply for it if the disability was acquired while he was in the service or within three months after his dismissal from it. However, you can receive such a pension later if you can prove that the resulting disability was a direct consequence of a wound, concussion or other injury received during service.

Payment of a “civilian” pension
Given the provisions of current federal legislation, many military personnel retire at 45 years of age. It should be taken into account that in accordance with Art. 1 and part 1 art. 18 of Law No. 4468-I and the draft law on increasing the retirement age of military personnel, the time of conscription service is not included in the length of service taken into account when determining length of service. Military personnel who have served conscription receive a pension according to the general rules provided for by Law 166-FZ and Law 400-FZ.
So a person, having retired from the military, can find employment in the civilian labor market and get a job, having mastered a new profession. From these funds his future pension provision is formed according to the civil model.
3 cases when an employee is entitled to an insurance pension
- Reaching retirement age. It is now 60 years for men and 55 years for women.
- Having 9 years of insurance experience. That is, the period during which the employer pays contributions to the pension fund for this employee.
- Availability on an individual account in the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation 13.8 points. Pension points are awarded annually for the period of official work.
Will the retirement age for military personnel be raised?
Currently, pension reform is being actively prepared for implementation in the Russian Federation. There is no separate bill on raising the retirement age for military personnel yet. For other categories of citizens, the project took its final form in the form of Federal Law dated October 3, 2018 N 350-FZ, which will come into force on January 1, 2019. These rules will also apply to military personnel entitled to a civil pension.
Raising the age for payment of the civil pension
The procedure for receiving a “civilian” pension for former military personnel will change in the same way as for other Russians. According to 350-FZ, by the time the pension reform is completed, women will receive the right to an insurance pension upon reaching 60 years of age, and men - 65 years of age. However, the transition to new values for the retirement age will be gradual: every year this indicator will increase by 1 year and by 2023 will reach the planned values.
By the way, it is necessary to take into account that in parallel with the increase in the age of retirement, other requirements for the future pensioner will also increase - the number of pension points and insurance experience. The duration of the minimum acceptable insurance period will increase by 12 months annually until 2024, when it will be 15 years. The number of pension points will increase every year by 2.4 units until it reaches 30 points.

Note! The age for granting a social pension will also be gradually increased by 5 years. From 2023 it will be 65 years for women and 70 years for men.
Raising the age for payment of a “military” pension
The public discussion on pension reform has been going on for several months. Some time ago, many experts pointed to the high probability of raising the retirement age for military personnel based on length of service. Even specific figures were mentioned: it was planned to increase the retirement age for military personnel to 25 years of service instead of the current 20 years.
However, in August 2018, media reports appeared that, at the initiative of the Ministry of Defense, the Government refused to further consider this initiative.
Indeed, the final text of Law No. 350-FZ does not contain any mention of increasing the retirement age and length of service for military personnel. Thus, we can say with confidence that the retirement age for military personnel will not be raised in 2019. The procedure for pension provision for this category of citizens will remain the same, that is, the one provided for by the provisions of Law No. 4468-I.
Will there be an increase in the retirement age for military personnel in the future?
Today, the process of discussing the reform is winding down: for example, on October 17, 2018, the Central Election Commission rejected proposals from initiative groups to hold a referendum on raising the retirement age for military personnel. Recent news suggests that until the first results of the implementation of the plan based on Law 350-FZ appear, significant changes in this area should not be expected.
There are no plans to increase the retirement age for military personnel in Russia based on length of service in the near future. However, the insurance and social pensions that they receive in the general manner will indeed be paid 5 years later, like other citizens of the Russian Federation. However, the transition to raising the retirement age for the insurance pension will be gradual: it will last until 2023.
In the wake of the discussion of pension reform, many people are interested in whether it is planned to increase the retirement age for military personnel. This is a rather thorny issue, because nowadays a former military man can find himself retiring 20 years earlier than his civilian counterpart. After increasing the retirement period from 2019 - by 25 years. Is this difference fair and will the retirement age be added to the military? We tell you what is already known.
The government plans to raise the retirement age for military personnel: reasons and goals
We can definitely say that raising the retirement age for the military has been discussed in the Russian government for quite some time, since about 2013. Currently, military personnel have the right to receive pension payments after 20 years of service. In fact, this means the opportunity to become pensioners for most of them already at 40-45 years old. In addition, in some regions of the country, a year of service is considered to be 1.5 or 2, which reduces the time of actual service and allows you to count on retirement much earlier than 40 years.
The currently widely discussed bill on postponing the retirement age does not reflect the government's plans for military personnel for a very simple reason. The fact is that Military pensions are regulated by a special legislative act- Federal Law No. 4468, and pension benefits for “ordinary” people - Federal Law No. 400.
Will there be an increase in the retirement age for Russian military personnel? Yes, most likely in the coming years the government will decide to postpone the retirement age for the military to a later date (probably by 5 years). But it is still quite difficult to say in what form the draft law will be approved.
Most likely, in the coming years the government will decide to postpone the retirement age for the military to a later date.
The main content of changes to the retirement procedure for military personnel
Changes for military retirees will most likely affect length of service requirements. From the current 20 years it will increase to 25 years. Exactly how the increase will occur - at once or in stages (like for civilians) - is still unknown.
At the same time, raising the retirement age in the Russian army will preserve many benefits provided to the military. In particular, it is planned to increase the amount of the percentage supplement to pension accruals due to former military personnel.
Those who remain in service for more than 25 years will also receive benefits - 25% of the pension they could receive if they left their post. For some time, certain categories of military personnel will retain the right to retire after 20 years of service:
- upon reaching the age limit for military service;
- for health reasons when receiving the status “unfit for military service.”
Why will the retirement age be raised only now?
Many readers may have a reasonable question: if the discussion of postponing the retirement date for the military has been going on for 5 years (since 2013), why has this not been done until now? After all pensions for ordinary citizens are going to be transferred very quickly: Discussions on the topic began in the summer of 2018, and changes will be made in 2019. There are several reasons for this government behavior.
In 2013, making changes was not so necessary from an economic point of view - a significant state budget deficit and the inability to fully fulfill social obligations have only become noticeable now. There are many military retirees, and if the timing is not adjusted at least a little, their number will grow even more in the coming years.
In addition, about 80% of the military personnel surveyed are categorically against the reform. Unlike the majority of “ordinary” citizens, they are still considered a kind of “privileged caste”, and therefore the government has not yet decided to sharply worsen their situation. However, recent news suggests that their prospects within the pension system will worsen.
How many military pensioners do we have and how much does the state pay them?
There are now up to 1.5 million people in Russia directly serving military personnel and persons entitled to a military pension. These are citizens (men and women) who served under the following departments:
- Ministry of Defense;
- Ministry of Internal Affairs;
- Federal Security Service;
- Federal Security Service;
- Federal Penitentiary Service.
The category of such pensioners also includes former military prosecutors and military judges. Moreover, the size of the pension benefit of any military pensioner almost always significantly exceeds the size of payments to civilian pensioners.
Currently, depending on their specialty and rank, former military personnel receive from 15 to 30 thousand rubles monthly. At the same time, many of them continue to work in “civilian” professions, which allows them to significantly improve the financial situation of their families.
The pension benefits of any military retiree are almost always substantially greater than those of civilian retirees.
Will the changes affect FSIN employees?
Penitentiary service employees are equated in status to civil servants (that is, officials), although in reality their work is in many ways similar to military service. An increase in the retirement age in the penal system is also likely to take place in the coming years.
Now employees of this department have the right to retire at the age of 45, while their professional experience must be at least 20 years (like the military). A special feature of working in the Federal Penitentiary Service and Penitentiary Service is the special procedure for calculating length of service: usually 1 year is considered as 1.5 years, and when working with life-long or infectious prisoners - 1 year is considered as 2 years.
The draft order of the Federal Penitentiary Service on increasing the length of service requirements for retirement provides for a similar increase - from 20 to 25 years. However, these changes will not come into force in 2018, since the bill requires further development and has not been agreed upon between different authorities.
As in the case of civil pensions, the law on increasing the retirement age for employees of the Federal Penitentiary Service in 2019 has not yet been adopted, so it is difficult to say exactly what changes to expect for employees of the penitentiary system.
Why postponing the retirement age for the military is a fair measure
Military personnel retire much earlier than their peers. This procedure seems unfair to many, especially in the current conditions, when the retirement age limits for civilians will be postponed by 5-8 years. It turns out that the state begins to pay pensions to the military approximately 25 years earlier than their peers. The life expectancy of most military personnel is approximately equal to the average for the region in which they live.
If we assume that the average Russian man lives 67 years, then after the reform a civilian will receive a pension for 2 years, and a military man will receive a pension for about 27 years. At the same time, a military man's pension will most likely be larger than that of an ordinary worker who has been making contributions to pension savings for 45 years.
In modern conditions, when household incomes have been falling for several years, and in most areas there is a budget deficit, the state will most likely have to take such unpopular measures and tighten the requirements for the professional experience of the military. Otherwise, increasing the retirement age for “civilians” while maintaining preferential conditions for military personnel will look completely unfair.
Conclusion
Most forecasts say that the pension reform will affect not only “civilian” Russians, but also military personnel. Until now, they were able to receive a pension after earning 20 years of professional experience. The reform will most likely increase this period to 25 years.
The main reason for reforming the system is the state budget deficit, which is unable to provide all social guarantees for former military personnel, the number of whom exceeds 1 million people throughout the country.

Recently, the Government has been increasingly talking about the abolition of pensions for military personnel in 2019. Information about the cancellation began to appear when the NIFI under the Ministry of Finance was given instructions to analyze how the pension is formed and how it is calculated.
At the moment, the key factor for calculating pensions is length of service. The size of the pension will depend on the number of years worked. Now the statements of the Ministry of Finance and the Government of the Russian Federation are used instead of length of service “Social package”. This causes a lot of negativity on the part of citizens and reduces confidence that the state will not abandon its citizens in old age.
Some may think that then the motivation and attractiveness of a military career for young people will decrease. But, on the other hand, with the introduction of social packages, military personnel retiring at a young age will also receive payments - weekend benefits. Currently, a pension is accrued if the length of service is at least 20 years. Or 25 years when the military age is 45. Half of this period should be devoted to the army. If the long-service pension is replaced with a social package - even if you end your career early for any reason (health, family circumstances, and so on), the military man will still receive something.
Will pensions be cancelled?
The main reason for the possible cancellation is the difficult, unstable economic and political situation, due to which the state is abandoning some social programs.
If the pension is nevertheless cancelled, then the military will have no choice: work in civilian life or live on a pension. The payment will be a one-time payment and for further survival, you will still have to look for work. Military personnel will be able to receive free professional retraining opportunities. Some of them go to work in universities and other organizations to pass on their experience to young people. But adapting to civilian life after several years of service is still difficult. And if to this is added the need to work in a completely different field, the serviceman is unlikely to be happy with such changes.
Consequences
Not only the attractiveness of military professions, but also the authority of the Russian army will decrease. Military pensions are received by employees of the Ministry of Defense, Ministry of Internal Affairs, Ministry of Emergency Situations, FSB and other security forces. If there is any innovation. The post-career payment should provide the military man with a comfortable year or two of life. During this time, he will rest and get used to a “free” life without a military regime.
Savings due to the proposed innovation could amount to 500-700 billion rubles annually. Experts are inclined to believe that the abolition of pensions will not happen. In the Russian government system and politics, the greatest weight is given to military units, criminal enforcement bodies, internal affairs bodies, and so on. They are unlikely to support the new law and it is extremely difficult to resist such a large number of employees. In addition, there will be a personnel crisis in the security sectors.
According to some other experts, talk about cancellation is being inflated on purpose - the freezing of the main part of the pension caused a lot of negativity, information about its cancellation will cause a lot of excitement, and when this does not happen, people will treat the freeze calmly. The hypothesis applies here: to make a person happy, take everything from him. And then return at least a quarter.
The abolition of military pensions will excite everyone, because then it is likely that the pension may be abolished altogether. In many countries, pensions do not exist at all. People work as long as they can. Lump-sum old-age benefits are also not paid in all countries where there is no pension.
Which countries do not have pensions:
- China
- Thailand
- India
- Iraq
- Afghanistan
Latest news on military pensions
The latest news today focuses attention not on cancellation, but on increasing indexation. That is, the amount of the pension paid should increase with inflation. The increase in expenses for essentials should not exceed the increase in pensions. There was also talk about increasing military service from 20 to 25 years.
On the one hand, with an increase in indexation, costs will increase, but with an increase in service life, costs will decrease. If the length of service is a quarter longer than it was before, then the need for new personnel will be reduced by a quarter. This means that the average amount of payments will increase, but the number of payments itself will decrease.
At the same time, the period of 20 years of service will remain for disabled people, for employees who have reached the maximum age for service, as well as in connection with organizational and staffing measures. For now, one can only guess what the pension reform of 2019 will consist of. The forecasts for it are quite contradictory.
What to expect for those who have already retired?
The abolition of military pensions does not pose a threat to current retirees. The proposed new law will not affect them, even if the pension is cancelled. After all, if a pensioner, for example, is already 65 years old, then giving him a lump sum benefit and then sending him to work would be stupid. In case of cancellation, the state will deal with the employment of former military personnel, and no one will employ those who have not worked for a long time and receive a pension. No one will be able to engage in professional retraining or send them to receive other education.
The Russian government has been developing a new system of compulsory pension insurance (OPI) for several years now. Its most important element will be a change in the retirement age. The innovation will affect citizens of various professions, including military personnel.
Let us examine the regulatory features of providing military personnel with pension benefits:
- by length of service;
- mixed type.
Will the period of compulsory service before military retirement be increased? Does the right to security based on length of service depend on the position? Until what age will you have to perform military duty? Will soldiers be given benefits for calculating additional length of service for participation in hostilities, service in difficult climatic conditions, and others?
Plans to increase the retirement age of the military in 2019
The bill, which generally increases the length of service before retirement for military personnel, was submitted to the State Duma back in 2016. When developing anti-crisis measures, government officials also took into account the need to reduce costs of the Ministry of Defense (MoD) of the Russian Federation. After all, it is this department that finances the pensions of soldiers and officers.
The draft contains a change to increase the mandatory period of military service from 20 to 25 years. Thus, the retirement age of officers, soldiers, warrant officers and midshipmen is actually increasing. As of 2019, the bill is undergoing the stages of examination and approval. This innovation in the army has supporters and opponents.
The objectivity of increasing length of service until retirement is associated with the following real factors:
- Weapons systems are rapidly improving, tactics and strategies for conducting military operations are changing. And this requires longer training of soldiers and the investment of more funds.
- The leadership of the Defense Ministry is obliged to ensure continuity among officers. That is, specialists can be sent to a well-deserved rest only after they have prepared a highly professional shift.
- Life expectancy gradually increases, which means that the duration of its active phase increases. According to current laws, officers who are capable of serving their Motherland for more than one year are retiring.
An important factor influencing the adoption of a particular decision is the budget deficit. A huge amount of money is spent on providing for retirees. The authorities are thinking about how to make spending more rational and beneficial to the whole society.
Officers and soldiers should expect an increase in the retirement age at the same time as it. The OPS system will be reformed comprehensively. The federal pension reform began to be implemented in 2019.
However, there were no official statements from the authorities regarding pension reform for military personnel by the end of 2018.
Types of military pensions
Military personnel are entitled to two types of benefits after leaving service. Namely:
- According to length of service. Appointed with at least 20 years of military service, as well as on preferential terms.
- According to mixed experience. This applies to officers who have served in the army for at least 12.5 years. They additionally take into account periods of civilian employment. The total length of service cannot be less than 25 years.
- By disability, in the presence of military trauma.
It is obvious that the reform will affect both groups of military personnel. If the time of compulsory service is increased to 25 years, then the parameters for mixed length of service will also rise.
It is not yet clear what the situation will be with preferential grounds for assigning a pension. There are also several of these. Thus, soldiers have the right to receive benefits due to the impossibility of further service due to disability caused by:
- injury or concussion;
- a serious illness that developed during the period of duty.
Like civilians, military personnel are assigned three disability groups. The amount of the pension depends on the category. In legislation, its size is calculated on the basis of the salary indicator of an employee in the same position from which the resignation occurred.
The third group of beneficiaries are officers who retired due to staff reductions upon reaching 45 years of age. It is obvious that changes will be made to this rule. The threshold age limit for performing military duty may be increased.
Information: since 2007, increased tenure standards have been in force for command personnel. They are:
- lieutenant colonels - 50 years;
- colonels - 55;
- generals - 60.
Legislation
The issues of assigning pension payments to retirees are regulated by the following acts:
- Constitution of the Russian Federation. Article 13 of the Basic Law sets out the norms, the implementation of which leads to the assignment of a pension.
- Federal law establishes specific rules for calculating long-service benefits.
The Constitution of the Russian Federation states the fundamental right of a person to receive support from the state in the event of loss of ability to work. Reforming the OPS system does not violate such norms. But a lot of amendments will have to be made to the federal law.
For information: President of the Russian Federation V.V. In 2017, Putin announced an increase in pensions for retired military personnel. The increase occurred from 01/01/18. Payments were indexed by 4.1%. However, the Moscow Region is implementing a program to systematically increase payments to retirees. Pensions should be increased to 100% of salary by 2035. In December 2018, the President of the Russian Federation signed a law on increasing military pensions after October 2019. After this date, the pensions of military and security forces will be calculated based on 73.68% of the pay of active military personnel/departmental employees. The overall increase in pension provision will be 6.3%.
What changes are planned to be made to the law?
The bill, which is being discussed in the State Duma, upon closer examination promises soldiers more benefits than losses. The developers offer the following:
- increase the period of compulsory service to 25 years;
- replace the indicator of 12.5 years when assigning maintenance for a mixed length of service for 20 years;
- introduce bonuses for officers and soldiers for each year of military service.
Thus, it is indeed planned to increase the age of retirement with subsequent receipt of support from the budget of the RF Ministry of Defense. Such a change is quite rational. Huge amounts of money are spent on training highly qualified military specialists. And at 45 years old, a man is at the very peak of activity, as evidenced by.
But the developers went further in creating regulatory conditions for attracting citizens to military work. Thus, it is proposed to amend the law. This regulatory act regulates the calculation of monetary allowances to soldiers. It is planned to add a clause regulating the accrual of additional payments for military service:
"13. The monthly bonus for length of service to the salary is established in the following amounts:
1) 5 percent - for length of service from six months to 1 year;
2) 10 percent - with service from 1 to 2 years;
3) 25 percent - for service from 2 to 5 years;
4) 40 percent - with service from 5 to 10 years;
5) 45 percent - with service from 10 to 15 years;
6) 50 percent - with service from 15 to 20 years;
7) 55 percent - with service from 20 to 22 years;
8) 65 percent - with service from 22 to 25 years;
9) 70 percent - with service of 25 years or more.”
In addition, it is proposed to add an additional clause to the normative act. It contains a rule about accruing 25% of the expected pension to soldiers:
- who have reached retirement age;
- those remaining in the ranks of the Armed Forces.
The bill on raising the military retirement age contains clauses that compensate citizens for the change in conditions. In addition, it is proposed to include in the law a provision on the right of officers to retire according to the old version (if desired). That is, everyone who served in the Armed Forces will be able to apply for a pension upon reaching 20 years of service. The innovations will affect officers and soldiers who will join the army after the changes are made.
For information: the stated edition may be changed in the process of discussion and expert analysis.
Specifics of calculations
Pensioners, as a rule, are interested in the amount of future accruals. Let's consider the bill from this point of view. The current law has rules for limiting the maintenance of retirees. With 20 years of service, the payment to a pensioner is calculated at 50% of the salary for the corresponding position. At the same time, for each year of work above the norm, an increase of 3% is due. The maximum age benefit is limited to 85% of the salary.
The bill increases the starting position for 25 years of experience to 65%. For each year above the norm, the same 3% is due. But the maximum position is 95% of the monetary allowance. This means that a retiree’s pension may increase under the new rules.
The increase in the basic rate applies only to general cases of retirement. Different rules are established for officers leaving their positions on preferential terms. It is proposed to leave these unchanged:
- reaching the maximum possible age;
- deterioration of health confirmed by a military medical commission (disability);
- regular events.
Beneficiaries are expected to leave the basic pension accrual rate at 50% of their salary for 20 years of service. And 3% for each year above the norm. The upper limit is the same 95%.
For information: the logic of the new law suggests that it will be more profitable for soldiers and officers to remain in their positions than to retire.
Mechanism for assigning pensions to female military personnel
For women military personnel, pensions are calculated on the same basis as for men. Military service must be at least 20 years.
But the legislation provided certain benefits:
- If a woman has not reached the maximum age for service (45 years), then she has the right to receive a long-service pension.
- Women are not subject to dismissal, except in cases specified by law.
From what year is the age increase planned?
The developers of the bill on increasing the length of service of soldiers and officers included a specific date in the document. That is, the plan involves the introduction of new rules from 01/01/2019.
But the bill is still undergoing approval. The fact is that an actual increase in the mandatory length of service may affect the readiness of military units for active work. Experts are studying the issue of the dependence of combat readiness on the age parameters of personnel. And this is of decisive importance in a modern army.
In the meantime, retirees have had their accruals increased from 01/01/18. Indexing was carried out by personal order of the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin. The general logic of the authorities boils down to the need to reform the public security system. That is, the age of compulsory participation in labor activity will increase for all citizens, without taking into account gender and professional employment.
For civilians, the age limit is expected to be shifted by five years (). This proposal is explained by a budget deficit. The Russian government implicitly acknowledges the fact that the pension insurance system has failed. There is not enough money for payments. The Pension Fund constantly receives injections from the federal budget.
But the reform of military pensions, adopted in the form described, will lead to increased costs. Its essence is not related to economy. Rather, it is aimed at a more rational use of government resources, which include the experience and professionalism of soldiers.
An increase in the length of service for receiving a military pension may occur in 2019. If the law is not adopted immediately, they will vote after revision. Then it will come into effect in 2020. In principle, the issue has already been resolved. All that remains is to work out the subtleties and nuances.
