Avoiding double social security contributions and fines for cross-border activities in EU/EEA countries and Switzerland. We are happy to carry out the application and certification process for you. 

Employees generally continue to pay their social security contributions in Germany even when on temporary work assignments or business trips abroad in the EU/EEA countries or Switzerland. In order to prevent contributions from being made abroad, the employee must submit an A1 certificate. The number of checks conducted in other countries is currently multiplying. Employers can be faced with severe fines if there is no A1 certificate available. Furthermore, applications for such certificates must be submitted electronically in Germany as of 1 July 2019. 
Do you not have the internal processes or necessary human resources to meet these requirements? Then let our Global Mobility Services Experts sort out the application and processing of A1 certificates for you. 
We carry out the entire A1 application process for you so that your employees being abroad for business reasons can travel at any time with a valid certificate without having to deal with all the bureaucracy.

You can find further information here.

Our offer includes:
  • Gathering all the information relevant for the application
  • Assessment of the international assignment under social law
  • Filing the application with the responsible social security authority
  • Checking the certificate
  • Forwarding the A1 certificate to the traveller
