Whereas Decision No 125 should be amended because of the need to limit the risk of abuse and whereas to this end it is necessary in all cases to enter a specific date in box 5 of form E 101;

Whereas it is difficult in such cases to obtain in time, prior to their departure, a certificate concerning the applicable legislation from the designated institution of the country in which the undertaking has its registered office;

Whereas there are grounds for making the procedure for issuing the certificate concerning the applicable legislation more flexible in order to ensure that the insured person carries with him a document showing that he is staying in one of the Member States on business and that he remains covered by the legislation of the country in which the undertaking by which he is employed is situated,

HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:

1. For periods of posting not exceeding three months the institution referred to in Article 11 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 574/72 may issue to undertakings, on request, copies of Form E 101 bearing a serial number, of which it shall complete only box 5.

2. The undertaking shall complete two copies of the form. One of these copies shall be handed to the worker prior to his departure and the other copy shall be sent within 24 hours to the designated institution of the country in which the undertaking has its registered office.

3. This Decision, which replaces Decision No 125, shall enter into force on the first day of the month following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
