Supplementary retirement of an official (Rafp)

Verified 09 February 2024 - Directorate for Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)

As a public servant, you are required to contribute to the Public Service Supplementary Retirement Plan (PSPP). The RAFP is a supplementary retirement pension on your mandatory basic retirement from SRE: titleContent (if you are a government official) or CNRACL: titleContent (if you are a territorial or hospital official). We present you the main rules of supplementary retirement.

The RAFP: titleContent is a compulsory supplementary pension scheme reserved for civil servants.

The RAFP was introduced in 2005.

Upon your retirement, you receive a supplementary pension from the PFRP in addition to your basic public servant pension paid by the SRE: titleContent or the CNRACL: titleContent.

To benefit from the supplementary pension, you must meet the following 2 conditions:

  • To be admitted to retirement with the SRE: titleContent if you are a public servant, or CNRACL: titleContent, if you are a territorial or hospital official
  • Have reached a minimum the statutory retirement age

Warning  

If you have early retirement (for invalidity, long career, handicap, parent of a disabled child), you still have to wait until you reach the statutory retirement age to apply for your supplementary pension.

Included remuneration

You contribute to the RAFP: titleContent on the basis of the following remuneration elements:

  • Premiums and allowances of any kind
  • Benefits in kind
  • Any other remuneration on which you do not contribute to the civil and military retirement pension plan or to the CNRACL: titleContent

Benefits in kind (e.g. accommodation or company vehicle) are taken into account for their tax-declared value.

All these remuneration elements shall be taken into account up to 20% of the amount of your index treatment annual gross.

FYI  

Specific provisions are laid down for State officials assigned to Wallis and Futuna, French Polynesia, Saint Pierre and Miquelon or New Caledonia to benefit from additional pension points.

Rate of contributions

You contribute up to 5% the remuneration taken into account.

Your employer administration also.

Example :

If you are receiving a gross index treatment of €28,000 per year and premiums for a total gross annual amount of €7,200, you contribute to the amount of your premiums up to 20% of €28,000, or €5,600. Your contribution annual is €5,600 x 5% = €280. The annual amount of employer contributions from your employer authority is the same.

The RAFP: titleContent is a regime of retreat by points.

Your contributions are converted into pension points and upon retirement these pension points are converted into a retirement pension.

How many points are accumulated?

The amount of your employee and employer contributions paid by your employer authority is divided by the purchase value of the pension point.

The result is rounded to the top.

In 2024, the point's purchase value is set at €1.41120.

The purchase value varies by year.

Example :

If the amount of your employee and employer contributions is €450 in 2024, you get 335 points (450/1.41120 = 318.87 rounded to 319).

The points earned each year are accumulated throughout your career.
