In 2026, Romanian pensioners are expected to contribute nearly €1 billion in health insurance taxes, while special pensions for parliamentarians remain unchanged. The government plans to collect approximately 4.594 billion lei from pensioners' contributions, with 2 million pensioners currently paying these taxes. The CASS tax applies to pensions exceeding 3,000 lei, and it will be eliminated by January 2028. Meanwhile, parliamentarians receive special pensions based on their mandates, with an average of 6,276 lei, despite a constitutional ruling against their elimination.
