As of January 1, 2025, a new liquidity scenario for pension plans will come into effect: you will be able to request a refund of contributions that have been invested for at least 10 years, without having to justify any special reason. This right is added to other situations that allow redemption, such as long-term unemployment, work incapacity or retirement.

How does this new liquidity right work?

According to article 9.4 of the Regulation of Pension Plans and Funds, those who have a pension plan may have, in whole or in part, the contributions with at least 10 years old.

  • From January 1, 2025, the amounts contributed up to the date may be withdrawn December 31, 2015, together with the profits generated, without the need to justify contingency.
  • In 2026For example, the amounts contributed up to the date of the December 31, 2016, and so on in the following years.

Can I continue contributing after a withdrawal?

Yes. If you decide to withdraw part of your pension plan for this reason, You can continue making contributions to cover possible future contingencies. The withdrawal does not close the plan, it simply allows you to access your savings when they are 10 years old.

How is the rescue taxed?

From a tax point of view, when withdrawing these contributions of more than 10 years, the taxation is the same as that of a withdrawal upon retirement:

  • The amount you receive is integrated into your general taxable base of personal income tax as employment income in the year in which you make the withdrawal.
  • This can cause your tax rate to increase, so it is advisable plan and study the right time to proceed with the rescue.
