At your request, work ability allowance is paid in one of the following ways.

• To your bank account in Estonia at the expense of the Unemployment Insurance Fund.
• On the basis of your written application drawn up at the Unemployment Insurance Fund, a digitally signed electronic application or a notarised application, to the account of another person, including a local authority in Estonia, at the expense of the Unemployment Insurance Fund.
• By post as a home delivery at your expense. As of 01.05.2023, the home delivery fee is EUR 8.80 on the basis of the price list of Aktsiaselts Hansab.
• To your bank account abroad at your expense.
• Upon submission of a justified request, the Unemployment Insurance Fund shall pay work ability allowance to a person with a profound disability whose movement is restricted or who lives in low density area and who has scarce access to bank services as home delivery by post also at the expense of the Unemployment Insurance Fund.

In the event of a name change, we ask the beneficiary to notify the Unemployment Insurance Fund as soon as possible in order to update the bank account information in the register. Otherwise, the allowance will be returned to the Unemployment Fund from the account with the old name, and the receipt of the allowance to the recipient will be delayed (until new data is submitted).
