A survivors' basic pension is paid to the spouse or child of an insured person or a person who was an insured person, where that person falls under any of the following items. However, in the case of falling under item (i) or item (ii), this does not apply where, on the day preceding the date of death, the deceased person had an insured period up to the month two months before the month in which the date of death falls, and the period obtained by combining the premium-paid period and the premium exemption period relating to that insured period is less than two-thirds of that insured period.

When a person whose period obtained by combining the premium-paid period and the premium exemption period is 25 years or more has died.
