Orange envelope - annual statement for your national public pension

The content of the annual statement depends on whether you have started withdrawing your pension or not. You can receive it in paper form or digitally.

Annual statement for pension savers

If you were born in 1938 or later and are still earning towards your pension, the orange envelope will inform you of how much you have earned so far for your national public pension, i.e. income pension and premium pension.

The annual statement shows the total national public pension earned up to your last declared income. You can also see which funds your premium pension money is invested in and how the funds have performed during the year.

Annual statement for pensioners born in 1938 or later

If you have started to take out your pension, the orange envelope will inform you of how much pension you receive each month of the year and what payment days apply. You can also see which funds your premium pension money is invested in and how the funds have developed during the year, or the value and development of traditional insurance if you have chosen that instead of fund insurance.

If you continue to work and therefore continue to earn towards your national public pension in Sweden, it will be shown in the annual statement.

Payment statement for those born in 1937 or earlier

If you were born in 1937 or earlier, you will receive a payment statement showing the days that the pension is paid and how much pension you receive per month.
