Au pairing in Europe
Plan your stay with confidence.
EU citizens can live and work in another EU country without a work permit. Depending on where and how long you stay, you may still need to register your residence and follow local employment, tax and social-security rules.
Before you agree to a placement
- Write down the expected duties, schedule, time off, payment, accommodation and dates.
- Check whether you need to register your residence for the intended length of stay.
- Confirm the applicable employment, tax, insurance and social-security requirements with the destination country’s authorities.
