'Social rate' certificate

You are entitled to the social energy rate if you receive at least one of the following benefits:

  • a Guaranteed Income for Elderly Persons (GIEP);
  • a guaranteed income (GI);
  • a supplementary compensation to disabled persons;
  • an allowance for assistance from a third party.

You do not have to do anything!

  1. The Federal Pensions Service and the Federal Public Service (FPS) Economy will inform the energy suppliers that you are entitled to the social rate.
  2. The energy suppliers will automatically apply this rate.

You will still automatically receive a paper certificate during the course of the months February or March each year. You can present this certificate:

  • if the supplier does request it;
  • to other institutions that may award you a payment exemption or reduction.

Do you want a certificate duplicate?

You will find your certificate in your online pension file on mypension.be.
You do not have access to mypension.be? You can apply for a duplicate by means of our online contact form.

You live in an apartment building with a collective connection or in a house without an individual connection?
In this case, you may qualify for the social rate for collective utilities.

Please note: the social rate is not awarded automatically. You have to apply for it with the FPS Economy.
