Lettland: minsta månadslön höjs till 780 €
Alla arbetsgivare i Lettland med personal på eller nära minimilönen, inklusive deltidsanställda vars proportionella lön baseras på den.
Anmärkning om datumet: 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.
Latvia's minimum monthly wage is expected to rise again on 1 January 2027, but the exact figure is still undecided: government multi-year planning assumed €820, while the Ministry of Welfare's updated calculation suggests €835. The Cabinet of Ministers typically finalises the following year's figure in the autumn budget round.
Every employer in Latvia with staff on or near the minimum wage, including part-time employees whose pro-rata wage is based on it.
