【Russian Major's Average Pension 6740 RMB】According to Alexander Safonov, a professor at the Russian Federal Financial University, who introduced to TASS, in 2025, the average pension for a Russian major is about 75,000 rubles (approximately 6740 RMB), while the pension for a major in the Ministry of Internal Affairs (police system) is about 67,000 rubles (approximately 6021 RMB).
Because of the special nature of their profession, Russian military personnel can retire earlier than ordinary workers. The calculation method of pensions is directly related to their years of service.
In detail, military personnel with 20 years of service can receive a pension equivalent to 50% of their position salary; for each additional year beyond 20 years, the pension ratio increases by 3%. However, the maximum pension amount cannot exceed 85% of the original salary.
This calculation method also applies to personnel in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the National Guard of Russia, and the Federal Penitentiary Service.
Additionally, if an individual has a total work experience of 25 years, with at least 12.5 years in the military or police system, they can also receive a pension equivalent to 50% of their salary; for each additional year beyond 25 years, the pension ratio increases by another 1%.
