Section 1. RETIREMENT BENEFITS
Article 3. Monthly pension
1. The monthly pension is calculated under the provisions of Clause 1, Article 3 of Decree No. 134/2015/ND-CP.
2. The rate of monthly pension is done under the provisions of Clause 2, Article 3 of of Decree No. 134/2015/ND-CP. When calculating the rate of monthly pension, if the time of payment of social insurance premium has odd months from 01 to 06 months, it shall be deemed as a half year or 01 year if from 07 to 11 months.
Ex 1: Mr A shall enjoy his pension from 10/2016, his time of payment of social insurance premium is 28 years and 03 months, and the average monthly income for payment of social insurance premium is 5,000,000 dong/month. Mr A’s monthly pension is calculated as follows:
- Mr A’s rate of monthly pension:
+ Mr A’s time of payment of social insurance premium is 28 years and 03 months; the number of odd month is 03 months which is deemed as a half year. Thus, the number of year of payment of social insurance premium to calculate Mr A’s is 28.5 years.
+ The first 15 years is calculated by 45%;
+ From the 16th year to the 28.5th year is 13.5 years, thus: 13,5 x 2% = 27%;
Mr A’s rate of monthly pension is 45% + 27% = 72%.
- Mr A’s monthly pension is:
72% x 5,000,000 dong/month = 3,600,000 dong/month.
Ex 2: Mrs A shall enjoy his pension from 5/2017, her time of payment of social insurance premium is 26 years and 10 months, and the average monthly income for payment of social insurance premium is 3,000,000 dong/month. Mrs A’s monthly pension is calculated as follows:
- Mrs A’s rate of monthly pension:
+ Mrs A’s time of payment of social insurance premium is 26 years and 10 months; the number of odd month is 10 months which is deemed as 01 year. Thus, the number of year of payment of social insurance premium to calculate Mrs A’s is 27 years.
+ The first 15 years is calculated by 45%;
+ From the 16th year to the 27th year is 12 years, thus: 12 x 3% = 36%;
+ The total 02 rates above is: 45% + 36% = 81%;
Mrs A’s rate of monthly pension is calculated maximally by 75% in proportion to 25 years of payment of social insurance premium.
- Mrs A’s monthly pension is:
75% x 3,000,000 dong/month = 2,250,000 dong/month.
In addition to the above monthly pension, Mrs A still enjoys the one-time subsidy upon retirement for a number of years of payment of social insurance premium greater than 25 years. The one-time subsidy upon Mrs A’s retirement is calculated as:
(27 - 25) x 0.5 month x 3,000,000 dong/month = 3,000,000 dong.
Ex 3: Mr B shall enjoy his pension from 6/2019, his time of payment of social insurance premium is 29 years and 07 months, and the average monthly income for payment of social insurance premium is 7,000,000 dong/month. Mr B’s monthly pension is calculated as follows:
- Mr B’s rate of monthly pension is calculated as follows:
+ Mr B’s time of payment of social insurance premium is 29 years and 07 months; the number of odd month is 07 months which is deemed as 01 year. Thus, the number of year of payment of social insurance premium to calculate Mr B’s is 30 years.
+ The first 17 years is calculated by 45%;
+ From the 18th year to the 30th year is 13 years, thus: 13 x 2% = 26%;
Mr B’s rate of monthly pension is 45% + 26% = 71%.
- Mr B’s monthly pension is:
71% x 7,000,000 dong/month = 4,970,000 dong/month.
Ex 4: Mrs C shall enjoy his pension from 02/2018, his time of payment of social insurance premium is 28 years and 01 month, and the average monthly income for payment of social insurance premium is 6,000,000 dong/month. Mrs C’s monthly pension is calculated as follows:
- Mrs C’s rate of monthly pension:
+ Mrs C’s time of payment of social insurance premium is 289 years and 01 month; the number of odd month is 01 month which is deemed as a half year. Thus, the number of year of payment of social insurance premium to calculate Mrs C’s is 28.5 years.
+ The first 15 years is calculated by 45%;
+ From the 16th year to the 28.5th year is 13.5 years, thus: 13.5 x 2% = 27%;
Mrs C’s rate of monthly pension is 45% + 27% = 72%.
- Mrs C’s monthly pension is:
72% x 6,000,000 dong/month = 4,320,000 dong/month
Article 4: Retirement benefits to the persons who had a time of payment of voluntary social insurance premium
1. The time to calculate the retirement benefits to the persons who had a time of payment of voluntary social insurance premium is the total time of payment of compulsory and voluntary social insurance premium, excluding the time calculated for entitlement to one-time social insurance.
2. Where the persons participating in voluntary social insurance have the time of entitlement to retirement benefits from full 20 years or more with under 20 years of payment of compulsory social insurance premium, the condition for pension entitlement age is 60 for male employees and 55 for female employees.
3. Where the persons participating in voluntary social insurance have full 20 years of payment of compulsory social insurance premium, the condition for pension entitlement age shall comply with the regulations of law on compulsory social insurance.

Thus, the condition for Mrs D’s pension entitlement age is full 50 years.
4. Where the female employees working full time or part time at communes, wards or towns participate in compulsory social insurance and are eligible for entitlement to pension in accordance with the provisions in Clause 3, Article 54 of the Law on social insurance but reserve the time of payment of social insurance premium and continue to participate in voluntarary social insurance, they shall be entitled to their pension upon request.
The time calculated for pension shall comply with the provisions in Clause 1 of this Article. Where this period of time is under 20 years, the monthly pension is based on the provisions in Clause 4, Article 56 of the Law on social insurance. Where this period of time is from full 20 years or more, the monthly pension is based on the provisions in Article 74 of the Law on social insurance.
Ex 6: Mrs E is a Vice President of communal Women's Union. She has 15 years of payment of compulsory social insurance premium and is full 55 years of age. She then reserves the time of payment of social insurance premium and continues to participate in voluntary social insurance for additional 02 years and 08 months and requests the entitlement to pension. Thus, Mrs E shall enjoy her pension with the time calculated for pension entitlement as 17 years and 08 months.
5. The average salary and monthly income for payment of social insurance premium to calculate the one-time pension and allowances shall comply with the provisions in Clause 4, Article 5 of Decree No. 134/2015/ND-CP.
Ex 7: Mr E has 15 years and 06 months of payment of compulsory social insurance premium based on his average salary as 5,100,000 dong/month; he has a period of time of 10 years and 09 months of payment of compulsory social insurance premium with the total monthly incomes for payment of voluntary social insurance premium (which has been adjusted on the basis of consumer price index) of 774,000,000 dong. The average salary and monthly income for payment of social insurance premium are:
|
[5,100,000 x (15 x 12 + 6)] + 774,000,000
|
=
|
5,468,571 dong/month
|
|
(15 x 12 + 6) + (10 x 12 + 9)
|
Article 5. Time for pension entitlement
1. The time for pension entitlement is based on the provisions of Article 76 of the Law on social insurance and Clause 1, Article 6 of Decree No. 134/2015/ND-CP and is done as follows:

Ex 11: In 8/2016, Mrs G is full 55 years of age and has 17 years and 06 months of payment of social insurance premium. Mrs G wishes to make one-time payment of voluntary social insurance premium for the years of missing payment to meet the condition for entitlement to her monthly pension. Mrs G has fully paid the amount of the years of missing payment to the social insurance agency. Thus, the time Mrs G shall enjoy her pension is from 01/9/2016.
Ex 12: Mr H shall be full 60 years of age and has 18 years and 05 months of payment of social insurance premium. Mr H wishes to make one-time payment of voluntary social insurance premium for the years of missing payment to meet the condition for entitlement to her monthly pension.

b) The rate of entitlement to one-time social insurance of the participants of social insurance who have less than one year (12 months) of payment of social insurance premium is calculated by 22% of the total income of months for payment of social insurance premium. The maximum rate is equal to 02 months of average income for payment of social insurance premium in which the monthly income paid for social insurance premium to calculate the one-time social insurance is adjusted on the basis of consumer price index in accordance with the provisions in Clause 2, Article 4 of Decree No. 134/2015/ND-CP.
c) Upon calculating the rate of entitlement to one-time social insurance, if the time of payment of social insurance premium has odd month, then from 01 to 06 months, it is deemed as a half year or 01 year if from 07 to 11 months.
In case of time of payment of social insurance premium before and after 01/01/2014 but the time of payment before 01/01/2014 has odd months, such odd months shall be switched to the period of payment of social insurance premium from 01/01/2014 onwards as a basis for calculating the one-time social insurance.
Ex 13: Mrs H has 10 years and 08 months of payment of social insurance premium with her average salary and monthly income of 4,500,000 dong/month for payment of social insurance premium.

Ex 14: Mr K has 09 years and 05 months of payment of social insurance premium (including 05 years and 02 months of payment of social insurance premium before 01/01/2014) with the average monthly income of 5,000,000 dong for payment of social insurance premium. Mr K’s rate of entitlement to one-time social insurance is calculated as follows:
- Mr K has 05 years and 02 months of payment of social insurance premium; 02 odd months shall be switched to the period from 2014. Thus, the number of month of payment of social insurance premium to calculate Mr K’s one-time social insurance is 05 years before 2014 and 04 years and 05 months of payment of social insurance premium for the stage from 2014 onwards (4.5 years)
- Mr K’s rate of entitlement to one-time social insurance is calculated as follows:
(1.5 month/year x 5 years + 2 months/year x 4.5 years) x 5,000,000 dong/month = 82,500,000 dong.
d) The rate of entitlement to one-time social insurance does not include the amount provided by the State as assistance for payment of voluntary social insurance premium, except for the case specified under Point c, Clause 1, Article 77 of the Law on social insurance. The calculation of rate of entitlement to one-time social insurance is done in accordance with the provisions under Point a of this Clause, then minus the amount provided by the State as assistance for payment of voluntary social insurance premium.
The amount provided by the State as assistance for payment of voluntary social insurance premium is calculated by the total amount provided by the State as assistance of each month for payment of voluntary social insurance premium. The monthly assistance is calculated by the following formula:
|
Amount provided by the State as assistance in month i
|
=
|
0.22
|
x
|
Poverty line of rural areas in month i
|
x
|
Assistance percentage provided by the State in month i
|
Ex 15: Mr K in example 14, in 09 years and 05 months of payment of social insurance premium, there is 01 year and 03 months (15 months) of participation in voluntary social insurance with the assistance of payment of premium provided by the State (assuming that the State provides the assistance of 700,000 dong/month based on the poverty line of rural areas and the assistance percentage to Mr K as 10%). Mr K’s rate of entitlement to one-time social insurance is calculated as follows:
- Total amount provided by the State as assistance for Mr K:
(0.22 x 700,000 dong/month x 10%) x 15 months = 231,000 dong
- Mr K’s rate of entitlement to one-time social insurance:
82,500,000 dong – 231,000 dong = 82,269,000 dong

If before 01/01/2014, the time of payment of social insurance premium has odd months, such odd months are switched to the period from 01/01/2014 onwards as a basis for calculating the one-time survivorship allowances.
Ex 16: Mr M died from disease and has a period of time of payment of social insurance premium from 6/2007 to 11/2017 with his average salary and monthly income of 6.500.000 dong/month for payment of social insurance premium.

- The rate of one-time survivorship allowances for Mr M’s relative is calculated as follows (payment for 06 years made before 2014 and payment for 4.5 years made from 2014 onwards):
(1.5 months/year x 6 years + 2 months/year x 4.5 year) x 6.500.000 dong/month= 117,000,000 dong.
d) The rate of one-time survivorship allowances for the relative of person who is enjoying his pension but died shall comply with the provisions in Clause 3, Article 81 of the Law on social insurance and is equal to at least 03 months of current pension.
Ex 17: Mr N participates in voluntary social insurance and has 15 years and 09 months of payment of compulsory social insurance premium. He shall enjoy pension from 6/2024. In 7/2024, Mr N died with his current pension of 6,500,000 dong/month before his death. The rate of one-time survivorship allowances for Mr N’s relative is calculated as follows
48 months x 6,500,000 dong/month = 312,000,000 dong
Ex 18: Mr P shall enjoy his pension from 01/2029. In 5/2030, he died (had enjoyed for 16 months) with his current pension of 5,950,000 dong/month before his death. The rate of one-time survivorship allowances for Mr P’s relative is calculated as follows:
[48 months - (16 months - 2 months) x 0.5] x 5,950,000 dong/month = 243,950,000 dong
Ex 19: Mrs N shall enjoy her pension from 6/2020 with 20 years of payment of voluntary social insurance premium (She has not participated in compulsory social insurance). In 7/2028, Mrs N died (she enjoyed her pension for 96 months) with her current pension of 5,000,000 dong/month before her death. The rate of one-time survivorship allowances for Mrs N’s relative is calculated as follows:
[48 months - (96 months - 2 months) x 0.5] x 5,000,000 dong/month = 5,000,000 dong.
Thus, Mrs N’s relative shall receive the one-time survivorship allowances equal to at least 03 months of current pension:
3 months x 5,000,000 dong/month = 15,000,000 dong.
