According to the new regulations in Circular 1/2025/TT-BNV guiding the implementation of Decree 178/2024/ND-CP, employees who are eligible and have been decided by competent authorities to retire early will receive immediate pension, without having their pension rate deducted due to early retirement.
This is a noteworthy point, opening up significant benefits for employees retiring early within the framework of staff streamlining and restructuring the apparatus.
Not only that, people who retire early are also entitled to additional one-time pension benefits and subsidies according to the number of years of early retirement and the period of compulsory social insurance payment.

Allowance for the number of years of early retirement: For each year of early retirement (12-month), receive 5 months of current salary.
