How is the pension payment schedule for September coinciding with National Day September 2 handled?
Because the September pension payment schedule coincides with National Day September 2, it will be carried out from September 3 to September 10 at payment points, and last until September 25.
Pension payment schedule September 2025
According to Vietnam Social Security, based on Decision 166/QD-BHXH, pensions and social insurance benefits for September will begin to be paid from September 3, one day later than the regular schedule. The reason is that September 2 falls on the National Day holiday.
Hanoi Social Insurance also said that the pension payment for September 2025 is based on Decision 2222/QD-BHXH, which regulates the pension settlement process.
Payment method and time
According to Clause 4, Article 7 of the Issuance Procedure attached to Decision 166/QD-BHXH in 2019, pensions and monthly allowances are divided into two stages:
From 2nd to 10th of every month:Pay directly at transaction points, at least 6 hours per day.
From 11th to 25th of every month:Pay at district post offices.
This September, pensions and benefits through personal accounts will be transferred no later than September 5. The Planning and Finance Department will transfer money to beneficiaries.
Pensioners and social insurance beneficiaries in September 2025 will receive money from September 3 instead of September 2, due to the 4-day National Day holiday.
Payments may end earlier than September 10 if the entire list has been resolved.
National Day Holiday Schedule 2025
