Johannes Hillebrandt · Co-Founder & CEO @premoteFrequently asked questions about A1 & CoCs
The employer is required to apply for the A1 certificate for every cross-border assignment of their employees, not the employees themselves. premote handles the application automatically in the background.
From the first working day abroad, i.e. as soon as the border is crossed and work begins. In principle this also applies to short business trips and single-day meetings. This may change in future due to a planned reform of the A1 rules.
The A1 certificate applies within the EU, the EEA and Switzerland. The Certificate of Coverage (CoC) applies to states with a social security agreement, such as the USA or the United Kingdom. Both prove the person stays covered by home-country social security.
The application is generated automatically from the case data and submitted in seconds. You and your employees no longer fill in any forms. The issued certificate is stored audit-proof in the document safe.
premote applies for A1 certificates for employees from all EU and EEA states, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, 32 countries in total. Certificates of Coverage outside Europe are available as well, for example for the USA, Canada, China, India and Brazil.
premote integrates with common booking and travel tools such as Concur, Perk, Egencia and Navan and applies for A1 certificates and CoCs from them automatically in the background.

premote files the application in real time in every country, generated automatically from the case data. How long issuance takes after that depends on the EU or EEA country, as each national authority has its own deadlines.
Yes. For every case premote automatically checks whether an A1 certificate is required and only applies for one when it is actually needed. Should the planned A1 reform with new de-minimis thresholds come into force, premote will keep checking every case against the rules that then apply.
