How to get your Czech Republic pension statement

Informativní osobní list důchodového pojištění (IOLDP)

Known in English as the Informative personal record of pension insurance. Look for this name on the site — it may not be translated.

• Your Czech birth number (rodné číslo), or the insurance number issued to you if you are not a Czech national.
• One of the accepted electronic identities: Identita občana (Citizen ID), a bank identity from a Czech bank, or a data box (datová schránka).
• Your Czech employers and the years, so you can check the record against your own account of it.

1. 1
   Open the ČSSZ ePortal

   ČSSZ is the Czech Social Security Administration and the ePortal has a full English interface, which is unusual and makes this one of the easier European records to retrieve.

2. 2
   Authenticate with an electronic identity

   Bank identity is the easiest if you still hold a Czech bank account; a data box works permanently once created and does not depend on a Czech phone number.
3. 3
   Request the Informative Personal Record (IOLDP)

   This is the document to ask for: it lists every period of Czech pension insurance recorded for you, with the employers and the excluded periods.

   Check the periods against your own record

   Czech entitlement depends on completed insurance years, so a missing employer can change eligibility and not just the amount. Gaps are worth chasing while the employer still exists.

You have no Czech electronic identity and cannot get one

ČSSZ accepts a written request for the IOLDP by post with an officially certified signature. A data box can also be set up remotely and is the most durable option if you expect to deal with Czech authorities again.

You are not a Czech national and have no rodné číslo

An insurance number was assigned to you when you were first registered. It appears on Czech payslips; if you cannot find it, ČSSZ can trace it from your name, date of birth and employer.

Periods before 1993 are missing

Czechoslovak-era periods are split between the Czech and Slovak systems under a treaty rule based on the employer's seat. If your employer was in what is now Slovakia, the record sits with the Slovak authority.

Upload the statement to your vault and we'll read the figures out of it — balances, benefits, vesting and retirement ages — and tell you what changed since your last one.
