Maternity benefit

Paid at 100% of average earnings for the entire leave: 140 days, 156 for complicated childbirth, 194 for multiple pregnancy (Arts. 10 and 14 of Federal Law No. 255-FZ). Average daily earnings = earnings for the two previous years (capped at the contribution bases) / (730 − excluded days).

Maximum in 2026: RUB 6,827.40 per day, i.e. RUB 955,836 for 140 days.
Minimum based on the minimum wage: RUB 27,093 × 24 / 730 = RUB 890.73 per day, RUB 124,702.20 for 140 days.

Childcare allowance for a child under 1.5

40% of average earnings: average daily earnings × 30.4 × 40%. In 2026 the maximum is RUB 83,021.18 per month and the minimum is RUB 10,669.64 from 1 February; if average earnings are below the minimum wage, the allowance is calculated from the minimum wage — RUB 10,837.20. The lump-sum childbirth benefit from 1 February 2026 is RUB 28,450.45.
