Social Insurance Contributions paid from your salary?
We tell you how to get your contributions transferred from Austria or Germany to your home country.
– transfer of eligibility of unemployment benefit between EU Countries
– transfer pension account payments from Austria or Germany to your home country
– get money back from Austrian „Mitarbeitervorsorgekasse“ = “New Severance Pay“
Since 1.5.2010 the EU regulation Bi 883/2004 is used for people who have been employed in a EU member country and paid social insurance and taxes from their salary.
You have been working in Austria or Germany as an employee? You paid contributions to the social insurance? Now you will move to another EU country? Did you know that you are allowed to transfer your eligibility for unemployment benefit to your next European Country?
This link will lead you to a website of the Austrian Labor Office:
https://www.e-ams.at/eams-e301/e/EsoSFormularE301.jsf?eamsTrack=1419856089633
It shows the form E301 – complete and submit it to your local labor office.
The labor office will send you a confirmation letter in return. This letter will show the time you spend in Austria as an employee who paid to the social insurance account.
Considered that the next EU Country you move to has a certain contract with the Austrian Government about Social Insurance/Unemployment Benefit, the authority in the respective country will add the months shown on the document to your time you paid social insurance in the country you live later.
Countries that share in the EU regulation:
Finland, France, Greece, Great Britain, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Austria, Portugal, Sweden, Spain as well as the new member countries: Estonia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, CZ´zech Republic, Slowakia, Slowenia, Hungary, Cyprus, Bulgaria, Romania, and since 1.04.20142 Switzerland, as of 1.06.2012 Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein
Contribution to the Austrian or German pension account can be transferred outside EU on request!
As a NON-EU-CITIZEN you can apply for the transfer of your pension payments when you leave the country.
Some countries outside EU have individual agreements with EU countries such as Austria with regard to payments to a pension account. Ask your local authority for the individual process to have your contributions transferred to your individual pension account in your home country

You leave Austria?You want to withdraw your contributions from your “New Severance Pay“
Write a letter to your insurance contract partner for your New Severance Pay. State that you will leave the country, your social insurance number, add your deregistration sheet from the townhall and tell them to please transfer your payments to the account you name them in that letter. Please tell them your contact details of your home country where they can reach you.
After a waiting period of 5 years (some insurances have different periods)you will receive a letter from the insurance that they prepare the payment of the amount and they will want to know whether your account number and contact details are still correct. Answer if yes and they will transfer the money to your account.
