The State Pension

Written By Jonathan Sheahan

The current State Pension in Ireland is payable from age 66.

The full State Pension for 2025 is €289.30 per week (or €15,030.60 pa.) per person.

The Contributory State Pension is paid to those who have built up enough PRSI contributions in their lifetime. This is scaled back for those who do not have full PRSI contributions. The Non-Contributory State Pension is means-tested.

The State Pension in Ireland forms a very important building block in generating adequate income in retirements.
