What is the minimum state pension in Germany?

There is no minimum state pension in Germany. But old people in need can apply for the “Grundsicherung”, which is a type of social security. It takes into account the minimum basic income to live, which changes from year to year, and tops up your income to make sure you meet the basic income to live. If you have any assets, it will require you to live off (spend) all these assets before granting you the minimum state pension. The Horizon65 app calculates the minimum state pension for you.
