National Pension and Employee Pension Insurance - CSV

Japan's public pension system consists of a two-tier structure: the National Pension (basic pension) and the Employees' Pension Insurance. All residents aged 20-59 must enroll in the National Pension, while company employees and public servants additionally join the Employees' Pension Insurance. For fiscal year 2025, the National Pension premium is 17,510 yen per month, and the Employees' Pension Insurance rate is 18.3% (split equally between employer and employee). Following legal reforms in August 2017, the qualifying period for benefits was reduced from 25 years to 10 years, making pensions accessible to more people.
