Certain categories of pensioners in Ukraine are entitled to full exemption from paying for housing and communal services in 2026. This applies to people who worked in rural areas and continue to live there after retirement.

Про це повідомляє The Public з посиланням на Пенсійний фонд України.

У Пенсійному фонді України пояснили, що право на 100% пільгу на оплату житлово-комунальних послуг мають пенсіонери, які працювали у сільській місцевості в окремих професійних сферах і після виходу на пенсію залишилися проживати у цих населених пунктах. Для них також передбачена компенсація витрат на придбання пічного палива та скрапленого газу в межах встановлених соціальних норм.

До таких категорій належать працівники освітніх закладів, спеціалісти із захисту рослин, працівники бібліотек і музеїв, медичні та фармацевтичні працівники, а також співробітники державних і комунальних установ культури.

Для отримання пільги необхідно відповідати низці умов. Зокрема, пенсіонер повинен мати щонайменше три роки стажу на відповідній посаді, працювати за цією спеціальністю на момент виходу на пенсію та проживати в сільській місцевості після її призначення.

Крім того, враховується рівень доходу. За даними Пенсійного фонду України, пільга надається, якщо середньомісячний дохід на одного члена сім’ї за останні шість місяців не перевищує встановлений показник. У 2026 році цей поріг становить 4 660 гривень.

Пільга призначається строком на 12 місяців із дати звернення, але діє не довше ніж до завершення календарного року. Вона поширюється лише на самого пенсіонера і не застосовується до інших членів родини.

Для оформлення необхідно подати заяву та документи, що підтверджують проживання в сільській місцевості. Якщо особа не внесена до реєстру пільговиків, додатково потрібно надати довідку про право на пільгу, яку видають відповідні установи або органи місцевого самоврядування.

 

Подати документи можна у сервісних центрах Пенсійного фонду України, центрах надання адміністративних послуг, органах місцевої влади, поштою або онлайн через портал Пенсійного фонду чи застосунок "Дія".
