SGK official service guide

Pension calculation: find the right SGK tool in seconds

Select your 4A, 4B, or 4C insurance status and the information you wish to learn. The system will direct you to the appropriate official SGK calculation service for salary, retirement date, or bonus.

Select calculation type

If you have more than one status, the last seven years of service and the legislation you are subject to can also be examined.
✓
We do not collect identity information. This page does not require a Turkish Republic ID number, e-Government password, or service record. The calculation is performed on the official SGK website after your selection.

Difference in calculating 4A, 4B and 4C pension

Retirement pension is not calculated solely by taking a certain percentage of the last salary. The start date of insurance, earnings subject to contributions, contribution payment days, pension accrual rate, working periods, and updating coefficients all affect the result. Therefore, a reliable retirement pension calculation should be done using service and earnings information from the Social Security Institution (SGK) records.

4A / SSK

This refers to the status of employees working for an employer under an employment contract. The SGK's 4A monthly calculation and "When Can I Retire?" services can be used.

4B / Bağ-Kur

Self-employed individuals, company partners, and certain independent workers are included in this category. Premium level and Institution records are important in the calculation.

4C / Public

Information such as the rank, grade, additional allowance, years of service, and monthly date of public officials is used in the calculation of salary and retirement bonus.

How to prepare for SGK retirement pension inquiry?

Determine your status

Check the 4A, 4B, and 4C days in your service record. If there is more than one insurance status, consider all of them.

Check records

Check for missing or incorrect reports in the initial employment date, total premium days, and earnings subject to premiums.

Use official account

Proceed to SGK (Social Security Institution) service from the selection result on this page. Remember that the Institution's records are essential for retirement procedures.

Main factors affecting pension

SGK (Social Security Institution) retirement pensions can be affected by the distribution of employment periods before 2000, between 2000-2008, and after 2008. Two individuals with the same total number of premium days may receive different pensions if their earnings subject to premiums and employment periods differ. Military service, maternity leave, or overseas service debt repayment can affect premium days and, in some cases, the start date of insurance; however, the impact of debt repayment on the pension depends on the chosen earnings and specific service history.

The calculation of "When will I retire?" differs from the calculation of "How much retirement pension will I receive?". The former considers age, start date, and contribution conditions; the latter considers earnings records in the Institution. In special cases such as early retirement, disability, invalidity, service time increase, and partial retirement, the standard result may not be sufficient.

Frequently asked questions about pension

Can I find my retirement pension by entering my last salary?

No. The last salary alone is not sufficient. The Social Security Institution (SGK) considers the reported earnings subject to premiums throughout the working life and the relevant legislation for that period together.

Where is the 4A retirement pension calculated from?

The SGK's Monthly Calculation service for 4A Insured Persons is used. The current service accesses the Institution's records via SGK and, if necessary, e-Government.

How to find out your Bağ-Kur retirement pension?

The Monthly Calculation service for 4B Insured Persons provides estimated monthly information based on the information available at the Institution. SGK records are essential in official procedures.

Can 4C retirement bonus also be calculated?

In the SGK's 4C Salary and Bonus Calculation service, information such as grade, level, length of service, additional indicator, and monthly date can be entered to obtain results for informational purposes.

Is the result on this page an official document?

No. The page helps you find the correct official calculation service. The Social Security Institution's own calculations may also be for informational purposes; the Institution's records and final decision are taken as the basis for monthly pension calculations.
