The purpose of your pension record is to provide a summary of your working history and related pension accrual. This allows you to review the information regularly and react to any shortcomings and errors as quickly as possible. Ensuring that your pension record is correct will ensure that your pension security is also in order.
You can view your online pension record in our online service.

It is a good idea to check your pension record carefully!
Check your pension record carefully, even if you are nowhere near retirement. Your future earnings-related pension is based on the information in the record, so it’s essential to ensure that the information is accurate.
Any incorrect information should be corrected immediately before it gets too old to easily rectify. If there is information missing that is more than six years old, it can only be corrected on the basis of employment and salary certificates.
Please note that the pension record does not contain
- work information from the current year
- information about work abroad
- information about studies you have not yet completed.
There is no need to provide us with this information.
For assistance in interpreting the pension record, go to the instructions for reading your pension record.
If you want to get information about the pension you have earned abroad, you will need to submit a request directly to the pension institution of the country in question.
