Iranian Retirees to Receive September Pensions on Official Schedule
In a move that brings financial clarity and reassurance to millions, Iran’s pension funds have officially announced the detailed payment schedule for September pensions for state, military, and cultural retirees. The disbursements are set to begin in the final days of the Iranian month of Shahrivar and conclude by its end (September 20-21, 2025, Gregorian calendar).
A Coordinated National Effort
The announcement underscores a coordinated effort by national pension institutions to ensure timely and transparent payments. This initiative is designed to allow retirees and their families to plan their finances with greater certainty, particularly in the current economic climate.
Detailed Payment Schedule by Sector
The funds have released a clear, sector-by-sector breakdown for pension disbursements:
State Retirees (Bank Saderat): Pensions will be deposited starting on the 30th of Shahrivar (September 20) and will continue through the end of the 31st of Shahrivar (September 21). Retirees can check their accounts with confidence during this period.
Military Retirees (Bank Sepah): According to the Armed Forces Pension Fund, pensions for military retirees will be deposited into their bank accounts on the 31st of Shahrivar (September 21).
Cultural Retirees: Retired educators and cultural workers will receive their September pension over the last three days of the month (29th, 30th, and 31st of Shahrivar / September 19-21).
Policy Implementation for Pension Justice
A significant aspect of this month’s payment is the concurrent implementation of the second phase of the “pension adjustment” for cultural retirees from the year 1400 (2021-2022 Gregorian). This policy is a key part of ongoing efforts to reduce the pension gap between retired and active cultural workers, thereby strengthening livelihood justice and enhancing the social welfare system for those who have served the nation’s educational and cultural sectors.
Official Reassurance on Timely Payments
Mr. Oughani Arani, Deputy for Management and Resource Development of the State Pension Fund, provided official reassurance. He stated that after coordination with the Plan and Budget Organization, all payments will be made according to the specified timetable. He further highlighted that new banking capacities are being utilized to make the process faster and more transparent for all beneficiaries.
This timely disbursement of pensions is a crucial measure for providing stability and peace of mind to retiree families, allowing them to manage their end-of-summer expenses effectively. The process is confirmed to be transparent and without delay.
