This January 1 also comes with the revaluation of all pensions in the Social Security system and other public benefits for 2025. Since the 2021 pension reform of the Coalition Government, the annual revaluation of pensions has been linked again to the prices. Specifically, the increase is applied according to the average CPI of the previous year, taking into account the interannual CPI data from December to November.
How much is the general increase?
The general increase is a reflection of the evolution of inflation and will be 2.8%. “Almost 10.3 million contributory Social Security pensions will increase by 2.8% in 2025,” indicates the Ministry.
The more than 720,000 Social Security Passive Class pensions are also revalued at 2.8%. The increase could mean “close to 600 euros per year for an average retirement pension and 500 for the system’s average pension,” highlights Social Security.
And the minimum pensions?
The increase is greater for minimum pensions. The increase is around 6% in 2025. Some that increase more, such as pensions with a dependent spouse and widow’s pensions with family responsibilities, which increase by 9.1%.
In detail, the minimum retirement pension for single-person households is set at 12,241.6 euros per year (compared to 11,552.8 euros in 2024) and at 15,786.4 euros in cases with a dependent spouse (in 2024 it has been 14,466.2 euros).
