This is how you apply for retirement pension

You decide yourself when you want to retire based on the age limit for your position.

  1. Discuss with your employer when you wish to and are able to retire.
  2. No later than two months before your retirement date, your employer must send us a notification about your pension. The pension notification can also be sent earlier than two months before the start date. You do not need to submit a separate application in addition to the pension notification.
  3. Regardless of how early your employer submits the pension notification, we will confirm your pension case at the earliest six weeks before your retirement date.
  4. Your employer will receive a receipt via Altinn. You will not receive a confirmation from us, but you can check whether we have registered your retirement case by logging in to "My page."
  5. Remember that you must also apply for a retirement pension from the National Insurance Scheme (folketrygden) at the same percentage as with SPK to receive a retirement pension from us.
  6. Once your pension application is approved, your retirement pension will be paid from the first month after your retirement date.
