Preliminary Note: Periods worked in other Member States of the European Union, the European Economic Area and in Switzerland, whether before or after the withdrawal of the United Kingdom, will always be taken into account, regardless of whether or not periods worked in the United Kingdom are taken into account, as the Regulations on the coordination of social security systems continue to apply in those States.
Similarly, the calculation of periods worked in the United Kingdom is independent of whether or not periods have been completed in other Member States.
For the purpose of future contributory pensions in Spain, contributory periods in the United Kingdom shall be taken into consideration at least until the date of the end of the transitional period (31.12.2020).
If the worker is working in the United Kingdom at that date, subsequent periods of contribution in the United Kingdom during that period will also be taken into account, since in that case the Regulations on the coordination of social security systems continue to apply for as long as that situation persists (work in the United Kingdom).
If the worker is not in the previous situation, only the contribution periods up to that date will be taken into account.
The Regulations on the coordination of social security systems will not apply. The Spanish Government's contingency measures provide for the possibility of taking into account periods worked in the United Kingdom up to the date of departure from the European Union.
Preliminary Note: These are Contributions to the Spanish Social Security System, with no transnational element other than the nationality of the worker. Therefore, this issue does not depend on international coordination rules, but on Spanish legislation which, moreover, does not establish any discrimination on the basis of the nationality of workers for the purposes of access to contributory Social Security pensions.
On the other hand, periods worked in other Member States of the European Union, the European Economic Area and in Switzerland, whether before or after the withdrawal of the United Kingdom, will always be taken into account, regardless of whether periods worked in the United Kingdom are taken into account or not, as the Regulations on the coordination of social security systems continue to apply in the other Member States.
All periods duly contributed by a British national in Spain will be taken into account for the recognition of a future pension in Spain regardless of whether or not there is a withdrawal agreement and whether or not the United Kingdom is not part of the European Union.
