Where are my pensions? Map every country you worked in.
Choose the countries you worked in and the years, and we draw a one page map of where your pension records sit: for each country, the official record or institution, the official route and any dated deadline that applies, each with its source and the date we read it. It is free, it needs no sign in, and the share link holds only country codes and years.
The map covers the 41 countries we research and 98 mapped countries where we name the institution and the official route. Identification only: we do not give advice.

What the map shows, and what it leaves out
Most people who worked abroad know which countries they worked in and roughly when. What they rarely know is which institution in each country keeps the record, which official route reaches it, and whether a dated rule in that country is already running. The map puts those three things on one page.
For the countries we research, the official record or portal comes from our government pension portals directory, and dated deadlines come from our cross-border deadline register. A deadline appears only where it has a fixed date still ahead and passes the same applicability gates as our free check. For mapped countries we show the institution, its website and any official form, read on the institution's own pages.
The map does not research your employers, name a pension scheme, fill in a form or estimate an amount. Those belong to the free check and to a Pension Identification Report, where a researcher works from your own history.
Questions
- What does the map show for each country?
- For each of the 41 countries we research, the official record or portal where a pension record sits, and any dated deadline from our deadline register that applies on the years you give. For each mapped country, the institution that pays the old age pension, its website and any official form, with a line saying we have not yet researched that country in depth. Every fact carries its source and the date we read it.
- Does the share link contain my name or email?
- No. The link holds country codes and years only, for example ?c=GB:2012-2015,NL:2016-2019. The page reads nothing else from the address and asks for no name, email or document.
- Does the map tell me whether I have a pension?
- No. A map of countries and years cannot show whether a pension exists in your name, which scheme holds it or what it is worth. It shows where to look and which dated rules apply. The free check goes a step further, and a Pension Identification Report names the scheme and who holds the record today, with sources.
- How do I save the map?
- Use Save as PNG or Save as PDF. The image is drawn in your browser from the facts on the page, so nothing is sent to us to make it.
