Data from the National Social Security Institute (NSSI) for 2025 indicates that approximately one-third of Bulgarian pensioners retire under special regimes rather than standard rules. This includes 1,487,094 individuals under category three labor conditions and 462,101 people through various special modes, such as early retirement, security sector regulations, and heavy labor conditions. Following these statistical insights, the NSSI announced new rules for pension disbursements effective September 2026. To prevent delays, pension Due to changes in the Ordinance on Pensions and Insurance Experience, payments and supplements will now be processed on the preceding working day if the standard scheduled dates—the 7th or 20th of the month—fall on a non-working day. For September 2026, pension distributions via post office payments offices and bank transfers accounts are scheduled to begin on September 4. 4 and conclude by September 18.
