Important notice
Important notice for applicants who are currently insured under the Dutch Social Security system:
Please be advised that if you are currently insured under the Dutch Social Security system, you will be excluded from this system as a staff member of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon. You will consequently be insured under the tribunal’s system. The above also applies to your dependents when they are not employed under a regular Dutch employer, self-employed in the Netherlands or are receiving Dutch social security payments. Please refer to the website of the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment for more information about the possible consequences for you and your dependents, such as exclusion from ‘AWBZ’ and ‘Zorgverzekeringswet’ coverage: ‘Werken bij een internationale organisatie’.
Important notice for applicants who are currently employed at another international organization seated in the Netherlands:
If you are currently a staff member of an international organization in the Netherlands, please be aware that when taking up employment at STL, if your contract at STL does not take effect immediately (i.e. the first working day) after your current contract ends, this may have consequences for your fiscal privileges and immunities. In addition, years saved up to apply for a permanent resident permit under Dutch Aliens law could be lost. Please refer to the protocol department of your international organization for more information or the ‘Protocol Guide for International Organizations’ issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Chapter 5). In general, note that the fiscal privileges enjoyed by staff of the STL could also differ from those enjoyed under your current employer.
