Getting Your OK-5 Statement via the Ukrainian Pension Fund's Web Portal
The Ukrainian Pension Fund has issued guidance for obtaining an OK-5 statement, which confirms an individual's insurance record, through its online portal. This document is provided free of charge. It is important to note that the electronically issued statement holds the same legal validity as a traditional paper version.
The Step-by-Step Process
To request the statement, you must first log into your personal account on the Pension Fund's web portal. You can do this using one of several convenient authentication methods:
- A Qualified Electronic Signature (QES)
- ID.GOV.UA
- Diia.Signature (via the Diia app)
Once logged in, navigate to the left-hand panel, find the section labeled 'Communications with the PFU,' and select the tab for 'Request for Electronic Documents.'
Next, you will need to complete the on-screen form. From a dropdown list, select the type of certificate (OK-5) and fill in all fields marked with an asterisk '*', if they are not populated automatically. You must also provide consent for the transfer and processing of your personal data and then click the 'Send to PFU' button. The Pension Fund's web portal is accessible at portal.pfu.gov.ua.
The introduction of these online services by the Ukrainian Pension Fund represents a significant step in simplifying document access for citizens. This digital shift is part of a broader government effort to modernize public services, saving time and reducing paperwork for users. Such initiatives align with contemporary demands for the digitalization of state services in Ukraine, making the system more accessible and user-friendly.
