In Italy, the pension payments follow a calendar that depends on the payment channel (bank account vs. Poste Italiane) and on weekends/holidays. Generally, pensions are paid on the first “bancable” day of the month for bank transfers, while Poste Italiane often processes in a way that may include Saturdays, subject to holidays. For 2025, the official calendars indicated that:
- If you receive via bank transfer, payments occur on the first banking day of each month, excluding holidays and weekends.
- If you receive via Poste Italiane, payments may be issued on the first available postal-day, which can include Saturdays, but not holidays.
- Holidays can shift the exact date for some months, so the first banking day or Poste day may fall a little later than the calendar start of the month.
For the specific “quando pagano le pensioni” in a given month (e.g., November 2025), the exact date is typically published by INPS and Poste Italiane and is influenced by holidays like All Saints’ Day (Ognissanti) on November 1. In practice, this can mean:
- Pension payments via bank transfer: the first banking day of the month, often around the 1st–3rd, depending on weekends/holidays.
- Pension payments via Poste: the earliest available postal day, sometimes the 1st or 2nd, and again influenced by holidays.
If you want the precise date for a specific month (e.g., November 2025) and for your exact method of receipt (bank vs Poste), I can fetch the official INPS/Poste calendars and summarize the exact dates. Would you like me to look up the latest official dates for the exact month and receipt method you're asking about?
