The payment of the fourteenth pension was scheduled for September 2025 and – as in erstwhile years – will come with the transfer of standard pension benefits. For most seniors, this means: Day 1, 5, 6, 10, 15, 20 or 25 of the month. According to ZUS additional data benefit receives about 8 million people all year (of which about 6 million in full).

The 14th pension in 2025 corresponds to the current minimum pension rate and amounts to PLN 1,878.91 gross. After deduction of compulsory contributions in the pensioner's account from 1 550 to 1 640 PLN.
The difference is that a individual qualifies for tax relief provided for seniors with income up to PLN 2,500 per month. delight note that only those whose monthly gross pension will receive the full amount of the benefit does not exceed PLN 2 900.
For persons whose basic pension exceeds that threshold, the the regulation to reduce the ‘gold for gold’ benefit. This means that any additional gold income results in a simplification of fourteen by the same amount.
For example, a pensioner with a monthly benefit of PLN 4,000 gross will receive an allowance little PLN 1 100, or PLN 778.91 gross, which gives about PLN 695 net.

Rules for the payment of fourteenth pension
In contrast to the thirteenth pension paid to each pensioner regardless of the amount of income, the ‘fourteen’ is covered a rigid limit of PLN 2 900 gross.
Despite the increasing minimum pension, this threshold has not yet been updated. As a result, subsequent valorizations push an expanding number of recipients beyond the limit, limiting the group entitled to full additive.
Moreover, the regulation includes not only basic pension provision but besides amounts resulting from the combination of pension and pension. In practice, this means that even those receiving average amounts from 2 sources may be deprived of the allowance.
In addition, ‘fourteen’ shall not be granted to recipients who on the last day of the period preceding the payment suspended the right to a pension, for example, due to the excess of the allowance limits.
As of July 2025, calculations should besides include widow’s pension. If the full amount of the basic pension and the benefit after the spouse exceeds the gross threshold of PLN 2 900, the allowance shall be reduced proportionally or not paid at all. Despite these limitations, ‘Fourteen’ remains a protected service: cannot be occupied by the bailiff and not included in the income criteria when applying for social assistance.
