News about the thirteenth salary for PNS pensioners in 2026 has begun to attract attention from the public as mid-year approaches. Retired civil servants, or ASN retirees, are now awaiting confirmation of the payout schedule and the amount to be received. Searches for when the 13th salary for PNS pensioners will be disbursed in 2026 continue to rise, particularly because this extra income is typically used for education costs, household expenses, and family savings. The regulation states that the payment of the 13th salary will be made no earlier than June 2026. ‘The thirteenth salary referred to in Article 2 shall be paid no earlier than the month of June in the year 2026,’ reads Article 15(1) of Government Regulation Number 9 of 2026. These provisions also apply to PNS pensioners and other pension recipients. Although the government has not announced the precise payout date, the payment is assured to be made no earlier than that month. In previous years, the disbursement of the 13th salary typically occurred ahead of the new school year, and the extra income is often used to help cover education costs for children or grandchildren. The provision is set out in Article 11 of Government Regulation Number 9 of 2026, which states: ‘Religious Holiday Allowance and the thirteenth salary for Pensioners and Pension Recipients shall be provided equal to one month of the pension received by the Pensioner or Recipient, in accordance with the provisions of laws and regulations.’ Meanwhile, the basis for the basic pension continues to refer to Government Regulation Number 8 of 2024.
