Senior Membership
Your unemployment insurance fund (a-kasse) membership will end at the end of the month you start receiving your public retirement pension. Once you start receiving your public retirement pension, you can join the unemployment insurance fund as a senior member.
A senior membership entitles you to job search assistance but does not entitle you to unemployment benefits (dagpenge) or other benefits paid by the unemployment insurance fund.
As a senior member, you are only required to pay the unemployment insurance fund administration fees. That‘s DKK 103 per month (2025) – a total of DKK 1,236 per year.
The administration fee is tax-deductible.
