Your employer is also required to deduct your weekly contributions from your salary and submit payment for both contributions to the Treasury on a monthly basis. Your employer is only liable to pay the employer contribution if your earnings are above the weekly threshold. Your employer must also submit a return of all deductions and payments made, also on a monthly basis. At the end of the year your employer must submit an annual return giving details of the total deductions and payments made during that year on behalf of each employee.

This will be deducted by whoever employs you first in each working week. The start of each working week is defined as a Monday morning.

The employer section of the contribution will also need to be made by whoever employs you first in the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;height:2vh\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you are self-employed<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are self-employed you must ensure you are registered and submit full payment for your pension contributions each year.

The current weekly rate for overseas contributions is \u00a364.60 for 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In order to enhance your partial pension you may also register as a voluntary contributor after your 64th birthday.

You cannot, however, contribute after you begin claiming your pension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can pay voluntary contributions on a weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly basis.

If you make between 250 and 2,200 contributions you will receive a partial pension when you retire based on the number of contributions you have made. If you are no longer in employment, or leave the Falkland Islands, you may make voluntary contributions in order to achieve the minimum 250 contributions required to be eligible for a partial pension upon retirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>It should be noted that under the terms of the Retirement Pension Ordinance 1996 contributions are non-refundable; therefore if you make less than 250 contributions by age 70 you will not get a refund and will not be eligible for a pension.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your pension is calculated using the following formula:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (number of contributions made) x (full pension rate) = (your pension)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2200<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are a voluntary contributor, you will receive a partial or full pension on the same basis as a normal contributor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;height:2vh\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Payment of Pensions&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Retirement pensions are not payable until you reach the age as indicated on the table&nbsp;below, unless you are a widow or a widower whereby the pension is payable from age 60.
