The posted worker notification is mandatory
- For each posted worker, you must submit a mandatory posted worker notification, usually before the start of the assignment, providing all relevant information about the posting (start and end dates, location, salary, local representative, etc.).
- This is the essential procedure to complete before the mission begins. The declaration is sent to the labour authorities of the place where the service is performed, so it is crucial to fill it out accurately.
A few case studies of
posting of workers to Europe
Your company is based in Austria and is sending posted workers from Germany and Belgium to various construction sites in Spain and Poland for periods of 6 and 8 months.
You must submit a mandatory notification for each posted worker via the local notification system in place in Spain and Poland, detailing all relevant information about the posting. These requirements are strictly regulated, and failure to comply with the notification obligations can result in penalties. In addition to this, each posted worker must also obtain an A1 form from the Austrian Social Security authorities, confirming continued coverage under Austrian Social Protection for the duration of the assignment and complete local registration procedures in Germany and Poland.
Your company is based in Lithuania and is posting an Estonian employee to Latvia for a 12-month assignment with a client.
Make sure to complete the mandatory pre-posting notification to the Latvian authorities before the start of the assignment in order to remain fully compliant. In addition, the Estonian posted worker must obtain an A1 form from the Lithuanian Social Security authorities to confirm their Social Protection coverage during the posting and complete the local registration formalities in Latvia, as they will be staying in Latvia for more than three months.
You have already submitted a posting declaration for a Belgian worker posted to Italy, but the employee’s remuneration has increased?
Any significant change in the conditions of the posting must be reported. This means you are required to update the initial posting notification with the Italian authorities to reflect the new conditions. In Italy, any changes must be made within 5 working days of the change.

Your questions
When a company sends a posted worker to another country to carry out temporary work, it is generally required to submit a prior posted worker notification to the authorities of the host country. This declaration typically includes:
- The identity of the posted worker
- The duration of the posting
- The location of the work
- The nature of the services
- The applicable working conditions
Companies that fail to declare postings may face:
- Significant administrative fines
- Denial of access to the market, suspension or prohibition of the service provision, including late penalties in the case of service contracts
- Legal action in the host country
In addition, failure to notify can lead to scrutiny by local authorities and reputational damage.
- Different national portals: Each European country has its own online portal for submitting posting notifications. In practice, there is no single European platform. For example, a French company posting a worker to Germany must use the German portal; if sending the same worker to Spain, the Spanish portal must be used, and so on.
- Different procedures depending on the country: Each EU Member State has its own rules and procedures for declaring a posting. Some countries require the declaration before the start of the assignment, while others accept submission up to a certain date afterwards. The methods for sending documents (online, by post, etc.), processing times, and required supporting documents also vary.
- Different declaration content across countries: The type of information and documents required can differ significantly. For instance, some countries require translations of documents (contracts, payslips, etc.) into the national language. Others require the appointment of a local representative (as a point of contact for the local administration).
