Moldovans working in Spain to benefit from pensions

Chisinau, 22 September /MOLDPRES/ - The parliament today ratified the agreement in the social security sector between Moldova and Spain.  

The agreement’s provisions regard the Moldovan citizens who worked in Spain, as well as the Spanish citizens employed in Moldova. It is about employees, independent or detached workers, staff of the international transport enterprises, diplomatic missions or consular offices. Beneficiaries will be able to receive old age pensions, pensions and allowances of general disability or caused by labour accidents or professional diseases, as well as survivor’s pensions.    

The value of pensions will be calculated proportionally by each state, depending on the period of insurance carried out on the own territory.

So far, Moldova has signed similar agreements with 16 states, of which 14 are in force.
