SVBL How To Claim An AOW Pension

About six months before you reach your AOW pension age, you should receive a letter about your AOW pension. After you receive the letter, you can submit a claim for an AOW pension.

Claiming an AOW pension: via the internet or by post:
After you receive our letter, you can claim your AOW pension via the internet. Your claim will then be processed quickly. If you prefer to fill in a paper form, please call us and we will send you a claim form by post.

Claiming an AOW pension if you live outside the Netherlands:
If you live outside the Netherlands, how to claim an AOW pension depends on where you live.

There are three possibilities:
1. You live in a country of the EU/EEA:
You have a choice. You can submit your AOW pension claim to the social insurance organization in the country where you live, or in the country where you were last insured. We advise you to submit your claim in the country where you live.

2. You live in a country with which the Netherlands has an social security agreement or in a country of the EU/EEA:
If you are insured under that country’s state pension scheme, you should contact the pension agency in that country about your AOW pension claim.

If you are not insured under that country’s state pension scheme, you should contact the pension agency in the country where you were last insured. If that was the Netherlands, get in touch with us and we will send you a claim form. If you live in the United States, you should contact the US pension authorities about your AOW pension claim.

If you live in Morocco, contact the Caisse Nationale de Sécurité Sociale (CNSS) in Morocco about your AOW claim.

3. You live in a country not referred to above:
Contact us, and we will send you a claim form.

If you are already a client of the SVB, you do not have to do anything:
For example, if you receive an Anw survivor benefit from us, or a remigration benefit, we will contact you ourselves a few months before your reach your AOW pension age.

After you have been awarded an AOW pension, you can log in to My SVB:
As soon as we have awarded you an AOW pension, you can request a DigiD login code for My SVB. With that code, you can view your details and read and print out your monthly AOW pension statements from outside the Netherlands 24 hours of the day. You can also report changes that way, e.g. inform us about a new account number.

WIth a DigiD code, you can arrange your AOW pension affairs via My SVB on our website, thus avoiding high telephone costs when contacting us.

When will you get your AOW pension?:
Your AOW pension will be paid with effect from the day on which you reach your AOW pension age. On 1 January 2013, the AOW pension age was increased by 1 month. In the coming years, the AOW pension age will be gradually increased to 66 in 2019 and 67 in 2023. As from 2024, the AOW pension age will be linked to life expectancy.

What is your AOW pension age?:
If you were born before 1 January 1948, your AOW pension age is 65.

If you were born on or after 1 January 1948, your AOW pension age will depend on your date of birth. Fill in your date of birth below to find out when your AOW pension will start.

A bill has been submitted to the Dutch Lower House of Parliament to accelerate the increase in the AOW pension age as from 2016. According to the bill, the AOW pension age will be raised to 66 in 2018 and 67 in 2021. Your AOW pension age is shown according to the current rules as well as the proposed new rules.
