What will be the benefits of EESSI?
EESSI will accelerate exchanges between national authorities. It will enable them to handle individual cases more quickly, and will facilitate the faster calculation and payment of social benefits.
Exchanging more accurate data between national authorities:
- Social security providers across the EU will use standardized electronic newsletters translated into their own language, thereby improving multilingual communication.
- EESSI will establish safeguards to ensure that the data exchanged is accurate and complete, thereby helping operators fight fraud and reduce errors.
- EESSI will improve the handling of cases by introducing new standardized electronic procedures that operators must adhere to, thus further promoting the correct application of social security coordination rules.

Secure handling of personal data:
- EESSI will introduce the use of a common secure infrastructure for cross-border data exchange between social security institutions.
- It will enable message exchange between national institutions, but the system will not create a database to store such messages and personal data centrally. The content of the messages will only be available to the relevant institutions, and Member States will remain responsible to ensure a high standard of data protection, in line with EU rules.
- EESSI will follow the latest standards in IT security.
How does EESSI work?
All communication between national institutions on cross-border social security files will take place through EESSI: social security institutions will exchange structured electronic documents and follow commonly agreed procedures. These documents will be routed through EESSI to the correct destination in another Member State.
Staff in social security institutions will be able to find the correct destination in another EU country using a repository of national institutions.
