At its meeting on August 14, 2024, the Federal Council defined the key parameters for the implementation and financing of the 13th AHV pension.
VAT is to be increased in order to keep the AHV equalization fund in balance until 2030. The Federal Council will determine the actual extent of the increase in fall 2024 on the basis of the new AHV financial outlook. It will adopt the dispatch in the fall so that Parliament can begin its deliberations in the 2024 winter session.
