The representative in the Netherlands acts on behalf of a client and contacts the labour inspection authority, the police and tax and customs offices in the event of an inspection. He or she also takes responsibility for storing documents which should be presented at the request of inspection authorities.
Every company which posts employees for a period of time (i.e. transportation companies) has an obligation to report to Dutch administration website. Self-employed entrepreneurs are required to submit a report as well. Reports are not required in case of:
- Transit (passing through the Netherlands without loading or unloading)
- Passenger transportation
Reports must be submitted before employee’s posting begins.
Frequency of submitting notifications depends on the sector/branch in which company is conducting business. Transportation companies are allowed to submit Meldloket notification once a year.
Since when is it possible to submit Meldloket notifications of posted employees?
Notifications may be submitted starting from 10.02.2020. However, notifications concern employees which start their posting not earlier than from 01.03.2020. Posting which began before 01.03.2020 does not require a notification to be submitted.
