Individuals lacking sufficient work experience for retirement can purchase additional contribution years through retroactive payments. This option is available to those who have not yet retired and involves signing a contract with the territorial pension house. There are strict regulations regarding the maximum number of years that can be purchased and certain periods that cannot be covered. Eligible periods for purchase include gaps in employment, military service, and university studies, while periods before age 18 or after the standard retirement age are excluded. The minimum monthly contribution is calculated at 25% of the minimum gross salary, and payments can be made in full or in installments. The contract must be signed with the appropriate pension house based on the individual's residence.
