The impact love has on your pension

29 February 2024

Did you know that love can be of impact on your pension? On this page we will pay attention to the theme 'love and pension'. All subjects surrounding love will be explained. The fun and not so fun parts.

Marriage, registered partnership and cohabitation

Are you married or in a registered partnership? Then this information is automatically known to us. You do not have to make any arrangements for your partner to be eligible for a partner's pension. With other forms of cohabitation, your partner is not automatically entitled to a partner's pension upon your death. In order for your partner to be eligible, you must meet certain conditions.

When you and your partner separate, there will be a lot you have to arrange. You will also have to arrange your pension. We want to help you with all the things you have to consider and arrange. Therefor we made the 'checklist for separation' for you.

Love without borders

Who knows, maybe you will fall in love with somebody who lives abroad, or maybe you already are. If you decide to move abroad, it is good to know what that means for your pension.

Exchanging retirement pension for partner's pension

Partner's pension is meant as an income for your partner if you were to pass away. You can choose the height of the partner's pension when you retire or leave the company. The partner's pension will be paid to your partner when you pass away, as long as your partner is alive. The standard for partner's pension is 70% of the retirement pension. You can choose to trade in more, less or no retirement pension for partner's pension.
