My incapacity benefit outside the Netherlands stops. What do I do now?

Your incapacity benefit from the Employee Insurance Agency (UWV) stops automatically once you reach the age of retirement (AOW state pension age). If you live outside theĀ Netherlands, you must apply for Dutch state pension yourself.

If you live abroad and will soon reach the age of retirement (SVB), you must apply for Dutch state pension in good time. That means 6 months before you reach the age of retirement.
