Europe’s rising retirement ages: One country leads—which will follow?

Several countries have already implemented reforms to raise the retirement age. Denmark has decided to raise the retirement age to 70 by 2040.

The OECD projects that by 2060, the average retirement age in the EU will approach 67, with several countries reaching 70 or more.

Denmark will raise the retirement age to the highest in Europe.

Denmark will have the highest retirement age in Europe after its parliament adopted a law raising it to 70 by 2040.

Since 2006, Denmark has tied the official retirement age to life expectancy and has revised it every five years. It's currently 67 but will rise to 68 in 2030 and to 69 in 2035.

The retirement age at 70 will apply to all people born after 1970.
