In November, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law establishing the budget for the Pension and Social Insurance Fund for 2026-2028. The document sets the indexation coefficients for pension payments for 2026. According to the law, insurance (labor) pensions will be increased by 7.6% as of January 1, 2026. As of April 1, 2026, social pensions will also increase, with a rise of 6.8%. As reported by TASS, after the increase, the average size of a social pension in Russia will be 16,590 rubles. This figure is included in the materials accompanying the project of the federal budget. Social pensions are granted to citizens over the age of retirement who do not have sufficient insurance experience, to those with disabilities, to those who have lost their breadwinners, and to children whose parents are unknown.
