Applying for pension via Tunduk and new seniority requirements: what will change for citizens

Since July 2026, more than 6,000 citizens have been able to apply for pension payments remotely without visiting the Social Fund office. As Baktiyar Aliev, Chairman of the Social Fund, reported on Birinchi Radio, the system allows receiving payments without collecting paper certificates and confirmations from archives.

Simplification of procedure and bank selection

Thanks to integration with state information databases, data on seniority and income is automatically pulled into the system. This relieves pensioners of the need to independently search for documents regarding wages.

When submitting an application through the app, users can independently choose a bank to receive payments. Pensioners can obtain a bank card with the credited amount already deposited when contacting the chosen financial institution. Payments are made monthly, starting from the 10th.

Changes in insurance seniority

Parallel to digitalization, the country is undergoing a process of phased increases in the minimum insurance seniority required for pension assignment. For women, who previously required 20 years of seniority, new rules have been established as part of the transition period.
