Tax Identification Number (TIN)

Instructions

When providing information about your employer, please name your current employer. If you do not currently have an employer, please name the employer for whom you last worked in the year for which you are applying for remuneration for paid annual leave (pay in lieu of leave or compensation).
Example: If you would like to receive compensation for your leave entitlements from 2024, then you should name the employer for whom you last worked in 2024.

Enclose proof of your identity with your application. This can be a copy of your identity card or birth certificate. Please do not send originals to the tax office.

Send the application and proof by post or email to the appropriate tax office. The tax office responsible depends on the country in which your employer, as stated in the application, is based. You can find an overview here.

Your employer can also apply for a tax identification number on your behalf if you give them informal authorisation to do so.
