PROPOSED, not confirmed: the Ministry of Finance's 2024 multi-year plan targets €820 for 2027 (after €780 in 2026), but the Ministry of Welfare's 2026 recalculation under the standard 46%-of-average-wage formula proposes €835 instead. As of 2026-09-07 no Cabinet regulation has fixed the 2027 figure; historically the decision is taken in the autumn budget process (the 2026 figure of €780 was set that way in 2025). Do not treat either number as final.
