If you were entitled to unemployment benefit in your home member state, you may continue to draw benefit from that member state for a period of up to three months after the move to the host member state.

You must inform your national benefit office before depar- ture and obtain the necessary forms.

On arrival in the host member state, you must register with the employment services in that country to be eligible for continued benefit. If you do not find work within three months, you must return to your home country, otherwise you will lose your entitlement to unemployment benefit.
