How to get your Sweden pension statement

Pensionsprognos / orange kuvert

Known in English as the Pension forecast and account statement. Look for this name on the site — it may not be translated.

• Your Swedish personal number (personnummer).
• BankID or Freja eID+. Both normally require a Swedish bank relationship or in-person identification, and this is the main obstacle after leaving Sweden.
• The years you worked in Sweden and roughly what you earned — the income pension is earnings-based.

1. 1
   Open minPension.se

   minPension is the joint service of the Pensions Agency and the pension companies. One login shows the state pension, occupational pensions and private savings together.

2. 2
   Sign in with BankID or Freja eID+

   The forecast is assembled live from every connected provider.
3. 3
   Read the three parts

   Income pension and premium pension make up the state pension; the occupational pension from your employer is often a large share of a Swedish total; guarantee pension covers low or short careers and depends on years of residence.

   Check your premium pension fund choices

   The premium pension is invested. If you never chose funds it sits in the default option, which is a deliberate design rather than an oversight.

   Save the forecast

   Keep the PDF. If you will be paid abroad, read Skatteverket's SINK guidance — non-residents are usually taxed under a separate flat regime.

You cannot get BankID without a Swedish bank account

Pensionsmyndigheten accepts paper applications and written enquiries, and has a unit for people living abroad. The annual orange envelope is also posted internationally if your address is registered with them.

minPension shows the state pension but no occupational pension

Only connected providers appear. Ask your former employer which agreement area covered you (SAF-LO, ITP, KAP-KL or PA16) — that identifies the administrator.

You worked in Sweden only briefly

There is no minimum period for the income pension, so even one year accrues something. Keep the record: Sweden pays small amounts abroad, and the years also count toward EU aggregation.

Whether Freja eID+ can currently be obtained from outside Sweden.

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.
