FAQ
How does deregistration affect my pension eligibility?
Deregistration itself does not change your pension entitlement, but the date you leave Germany can affect important timelines. For refund cases, the 24-month waiting period after your last mandatory contribution starts from when you are no longer insured. For regular pension claims, your contribution months remain valid regardless of where you live. The key is understanding which pension route makes sense given your departure date and contribution history.
