What is the state pension for a married couple?

In the UK, the state pension for a married couple consists of two individual pensions: the Basic State Pension and the New State Pension. As of 2023, the full new state pension is £203.85 per week per person, so a couple could potentially receive about £407.70 per week if both are eligible for the full amount. However, actual payments may vary based on each individual's National Insurance contributions and other factors. It's important for couples to check their specific circumstances for accurate figures.
