Estonia Social Security Rates in 2023

The Estonian social security system encompasses various types of mandatory insurance contributions, which are designed to provide a range of benefits to employees. These contributions are typically divided between the employer and the employee, and fund pensions, health insurance, and other social benefits.

Pension Insurance

Pension insurance is a cornerstone of the social security system, ensuring income for individuals during retirement. In Estonia, this is part of a three-pillar system which includes a state pension (first pillar), mandatory funded pension (second pillar), and voluntary personal pension savings (third pillar).

Health Insurance

Health insurance contributions provide access to medical care, covering expenses for health services, prescription medications, and sick leave benefits, among others. This is crucial for maintaining the well-being and productivity of the workforce.

Unemployment Insurance

Unemployment insurance offers financial support in the event of job loss. Both employees and employers contribute to this fund, which is managed by the Estonian Unemployment Insurance Fund.

Rates for Social Security Contributions

Employers are responsible for the bulk of social security contributions in Estonia. They pay a combined rate for social tax, which includes pension and health insurance, and an additional rate for unemployment insurance.

Employees contribute a smaller portion through their unemployment insurance. This is withheld by the employer from the employee's gross salary.

It's important to note that the specific rates for social security contributions can change, and employers are advised to consult the latest information from the Estonian Tax and Customs Board or other relevant government bodies to ensure they are compliant with the current rates.

In addition to the above, there is also the funded pension contribution, which is a mandatory savings scheme for those born after 1983. It is a defined contribution plan where a percentage of the gross salary is directed towards the employee's pension fund.

Estonia's social security system is built to provide comprehensive coverage while distributing the financial responsibilities between employers and employees. This balance aims to ensure the long-term sustainability of the social security system and the welfare of all working individuals in the country.
