Good day,
The process of applying for and obtaining A1 decisions is a time-consuming one for the people involved, the government and the authorities. Those affected and associations have made representations to the EU and succeeded in reaching an agreement between the EU Parliament, the EU heads of government and the EU Commission that the costs should be reduced.
This has led to headlines that give the impression that an A1 certificate is no longer necessary.
This is not the case. Registration is an intention and an obligation to provide services within the EU/EFTA countries;to look for another way of documenting and testing the social security status of services within the EU/EFTA states. to be tested. Details are not yet known. This does not affect the obligation to document social security status when traveling to third countries with which Germany has concluded a social security agreement.
