When and where do I need to register my employee?

Employees need to be registered at the latest before they start work. You can register the first employee on paper directly at the SIA branch or via www.slovensko.sk at the same time as registering as an employer. Other employees can be registered electronically via the Social Insurance Agency’s eServices, once access has been granted.

How do I register my employee?

What types of insurance will I pay/deduct?

As an employer, you pay contributions for an employee and for yourself as an employer. The specific types of insurance depend on the type of insuree.

How should I proceed in the case I register a foreign employee who has not been assigned a personal identification number?

In the case of a foreign employee who has not been assigned a personal identification number, send the Registration Form of a Natural Person (RLFO) - application to the branch office electronically via eServices, or in paper form. If you submit the RLFO - application in paper form, the branch office will generate for you a social security identification number for social insurance purposes. Before sending the RLFO electronically via eServices, send the branch office the details of the foreign employee, in particular the name, surname and date of birth, via secure communication or an electronic mailbox. The branch office will generate a social security identification number for the employee for social insurance purposes, which will be sent to you via secure communication or an electronic mailbox.
