The registration form, filled in

With the Ausgleichskasse des Kantons Bern you register online. Here you see what goes where before you open the fund's form.

What to have ready for the registration

  • Your own AHV number (on your health insurance card) and your date of birth
  • Since when you employ someone and the estimated wage
  • An IBAN for refunds
  • Whether you already have accident insurance. If not, choose accident insurance through the compensation fund in the form (simplified procedure plus)

The federal form asks nothing about the employee. Those details come with the wage report.
