Disability Support Pension - Austrian Glossary

When the Agreement with Austria was negotiated it covered DSP for both the severely disabled and the non-severely disabled. Since the Agreement has been revised, from 1 October 2002, new grants of DSP and indefinite portability of DSP are restricted to persons who are severely disabled. Existing non-severely disabled pensioners in Austria were 'saved'.
