July Pensions: Countdown to Payments with Two Final Dates

Greece's social security agency, e-EFKA, has set the payment dates for July pensions, continuing its monthly practice of dividing payments based on employment status. The agency announced that the first installment will be disbursed on Thursday, June 25, 2026. This payment covers main pensions for the self-employed (from former funds OAEE, OGA, ETAA) and pensions awarded after the EFKA's establishment under law 4387/2016. Additionally, all private sector supplementary pensions, for both employed and self-employed individuals, will be paid on this date.

The second phase of payments is scheduled for Monday, June 29, 2026. This will include main pensions for the employed (from former funds IKA-ETAM, banks, OTE, DEI, and others like TSAPGSO and TSPI-HSAP), as well as pensions from NAT, ETAT, and ETAP-MME. Public sector pensions, both main and supplementary, will also be paid on this day.

Following standard banking practices, pensioners can usually withdraw their funds from ATMs on the afternoon of the business day preceding the official payment date. This means funds for the first installment should become available gradually from the afternoon of Wednesday, June 24. Due to the weekend, the second installment's funds will start appearing in accounts from the afternoon of Friday, June 26.
