Mongolian citizens in Poland to be insured to get pension
Politics
Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ Yesterday, May 10, in its regular meeting, the cabinet backed draft intergovernmental agreement of Mongolia and Republic of Poland on Social Protection and entitled Minister N.Nomtoibayar to sign the agreement, if the relevant Standing Committee of Parliament supports it.
Mongolian citizens, who reside in Poland, purchase short term social insurance that allows them to get benefits related to health and employment. However, there is no legal basis that enables Mongolians to register for pension insurance and to be repaid when they return to motherland or get a pension when they are retired.
Therefore, the Government of Mongolia held talks with the Polish part and agreed to adhere to some principles. Those include, not to register for duplicated insurance contract in both countries, insurance premiums should be paid according to relevant legislation of that country, to allow the insured to include total premium paid period that paid in both countries in the calculation of the premium and to get a pension in compliance with his/her paid period as well as to provide the insured the pension, who are entitled to receive pensions and benefits, regardless where the insurer resides in, or on the territory of the two countries or in the third country.
The Government considers the agreement prevents Mongolian citizens in Poland from being left behind pensions or getting a small amount of pension. A statistical data of 2015 shows that, 923 Mongolian citizens live in Poland.
