New regulations in Romania will govern the combination of pension and salary income starting in 2026. These rules apply to all disability pension beneficiaries, regardless of the severity of their disability. However, restrictions are foreseen for those receiving early retirement pensions and for surviving spouses who receive survivor's pensions. The legal framework establishes specific conditions that must be met to simultaneously receive both income streams. A defined income limit will also be in place, dictating how much earned income is permissible while still receiving full pension benefits. Details regarding these income thresholds and qualifying criteria are expected to be further clarified as the 2026 implementation date approaches. These changes aim to balance social security provisions with workforce participation incentives in Romania.
