Pension question, Slovenia

Can I get a Slovenian pension after 15 years of insurance?

Slovenia's floor is 15 years of insurance, and on the 2026 transitional table that route opens at 65, rising to 66 years and 9 months by 2034. The rating base is the monthly average of the most favourable consecutive years since 1970, counted over 24 years in 2026 and 2027 and widening to 38 by 2034, and a calendar year counts only if it holds six months of insurance.
