The government has published who will see an increase in their pension.

In January 2027, pensions in Hungary will increase by 3% due to projected inflation. The government plans additional increases for low pensions, ensuring that those receiving under 108,000 HUF will uniformly receive 120,000 HUF monthly. The budget proposal includes tiered increases for various pension brackets, benefiting around 455,000 retirees. The government aims to reduce the deficit below 5%, although experts see risks. Additionally, a new SZÉP card for retirees will be introduced, providing further financial support for 2.2 million individuals, allowing spending on leisure, medicine, and food.
