Pensions to Increase by 1.5% from 1 January 2026

Luxembourg's Ministry of Health and Social Security has announced an upcoming pension increase.

Pensions will increase by 1.5% from Thursday 1 January 2026.

In accordance with Article 225bis of the Social Security Code relating to pension insurance, the government carries out an annual review to determine whether it is necessary to adjust current pensions. This assessment is based on an analysis of changes in the average level of contributory wages carried out by the General Inspectorate of Social Security (IGSS).

For the year 2024, the revaluation factor referred to in Article 225 of the Social Security Code has been set at 1.619, resulting in a 1.5% increase in pensions effective from 1 January 2026.
