End of cohabitation

Do you split up after having lived together? That means you need to make good arrangements about your pension. Is your partner registered with the pension fund? If so, you will have to deregister your partner again. That is necessary in order to calculate your pension.

What should you do?

• Deregister your partner from the pension fund. Please, contact us.
• Include a copy or scan of the notarial deed showing that your cohabitation agreement has ended.

Special partner’s pension
After your relationship ends, your ex-partner is entitled to part of the partner’s pension: the amount of partner’s pension that has been accrued up until you divorced. We call that the special partner’s pension.

You have 2 options

1. If you agree to this settlement
   Please contact us to let us know that you are separated. The pension fund will make further arrangements for the special partner’s pension.
2. You and your ex-partner are making alternative arrangements
   Have these agreements recorded in an agreement or joint statement and send us a copy. The pension fund will make further arrangements for the special partner’s pension.

A partner you have cohabited with is not entitled to part of your retirement pension (equalisation). Only to the special partner’s pension.
