Today, payments from citizens' salaries to the Pension Fund are not made, and the income taxes mentioned in the video message are not directed to the Pension Fund, the official statement says.

It is noted that the state pension system in the Republic of Uzbekistan is "solidary", meaning it is based on the solidarity of generations, and pensions are paid to the former working citizens - pensioners from the social tax paid by today's employers.

In this case, age-related pensions are terminated upon the death of the citizen and may be paid in the form of a pension for loss of a breadwinner to underage children or a non-working spouse.

For your information: In all foreign countries with a state pension system, pensions are terminated upon the death of the citizen and are not paid to the children as inheritance.
