Overview
- As of September 1, 2025, Robert Habeck is no longer a member of the Bundestag.
- He receives ministerial transition pay for two years, with about €18,000 gross per month for the first three months and half thereafter, totaling roughly €243,000.
- From age 67 he is entitled to an estimated €5,000 per month as a ministerial pension, which can start earlier with deductions.
- He also qualifies for parliamentary benefits, including one month of transition pay at the current €11,833 rate and an MP pension calculated at 2.5% per mandate year.
- Ministerial and MP pensions are offset, yielding a reported combined payout of about €5,600 per month or roughly €6,900 if nine Schleswig-Holstein Landtag years are credited; his payments come from public funds regardless of new roles, and he has named the Danish Institute for International Studies and UC Berkeley as next steps.
