PENSIONS
How many years of contributions do I need for a Cyprus pension?
At least 780 weeks (15 years) of paid contributions with at least 15 paid basic-insurance points, and total points of at least 30% of the years since you turned 16. With less, you may be entitled to an old-age lump sum instead, or to the social pension (€429,15/month in 2026) at 65 with 20 years' residence in Cyprus.
