Approximately 2,000 Moldovans get social benefits provided based on international social security agreements signed by the Republic of Moldova with other states, IPN reports.
The bilateral social security agreements function based on the principle of proportionality: each contracting state pays the part of the pension calculated for the contributions paid to the public social insurance system on the own territory. The eligible persons can benefit from old-age pension, pension for disability caused by common illnesses, pensions and allowances for disability as a result of workplace accidents or caused by occupational diseases, and successor pension.
The Republic of Moldova signed 17 bilateral social security agreements with Austria, Bulgaria, Portugal, Romania, Luxemburg, Estonia, the Czech Republic, Belgium, Poland, Hungary, Lithuania, Germany, Turkey, Belarus, Greece, and also with Italy and Spain. The last two agreements are to take effect.
Those entitled will submit an application accompanied by a number of confirmation documents to the National House of Social Insurance or the responsible institution of the other contracting state.
