In a press release dated 22 November 2022the Ministry for Social Security announced an extension to the 6-month transitional period introduced last June (see our newsflash of 24 June 2022))

This transitional period allows for “ une tolérance administrative, permettant aux travailleurs frontaliers de continuer à effectuer le travail sous forme de télétravail à partir de leur domicile, sans craindre de changer d’affiliation à la sécurité sociale en cas de dépassement du seuil prévu dans la législation européenne ”.

The transitional period will therefore continue until 30 June 2023..

The Ministry for Social Security points out that this provision only applies to social security, and provisions relating to taxation are covered by separate specific bilateral agreements.
