Budget received 436.2 billion UAH of single contribution in January – July 2026. This is 18.1% more than in the same period last year. Then revenues amounted to 369.4 billion UAH.
Single contribution is not just another payment. It is due to it that the social insurance system is formed, in particular insurance period, which affects person’s right to a pension, sick leave, unemployment benefits and other social payments.
Not enough experience for a pension? It is possible to buy it. To do this, it is needed to conclude agreement on voluntary participation in the state pension insurance system.
There are two options:
- One-time payment for past periods.
It is possible to pay for months when a person did not work officially and was not entrepreneur. In 2026, the minimum contribution for one such month is 3 804.68 UAH. The one must pay funds within 10 days after concluding agreement on voluntary participation in the state pension insurance system.
- Voluntary participation.
To do this, it is possible to conclude a contract for at least one year and pay contributions monthly. Minimum monthly contribution in 2026 is 1 902.34 UAH.
To conclude a contract, it is needed to contact the Tax Service at the person’s residence place with a corresponding application for concluding a contract (in the electronic or paper form). Application can be submitted both in the paper and electronic form.
