On September 13, 2024, China's government announced a significant update to its retirement policy, with gradual changes set to take effect from January 1, 2025. Over the next 15 years, the statutory retirement age will be progressively raised. Additionally, starting in 2030, the minimum contribution period for receiving a basic pension will gradually increase from 15 to 20 years, with an incremental rise of six months per year.
