Furthermore, starting from March 1, 2025, pensions will be assigned "automatically" to citizens who have reached the pension age, without the need for any documents and no applications required from the citizens. In this process, all personal information regarding the citizen (such as age, gender, employment record, salary, paid social tax amount, and family composition) will be obtained from the electronic databases of ministries and agencies.
