Deregister your domestic worker at the Seguridad Social

What you need to have to hand

1. Your ID: Cl@ve, certificado digital or a mobile with SMS linked to the Seguridad Social.
2. Household data: your CCC from the Sistema Especial de Empleados de Hogar and your Número de Seguridad Social.
3. Worker data: DNI/NIE and Número de Afiliación.
4. Date and reason for termination: dimisión, desistimiento, mutuo acuerdo, fallecimiento del empleador, etc.
5. If you go to an office, bring the filled deregistration form and, if you act for someone else, an authorization and the DNIs.

Documentation

• DNI/NIE del empleador y NAF del empleador.
• CCC del hogar.
• DNI/NIE de la trabajadora y su NAF.
• Fecha de baja y motivo.
• Medio de identificación (Cl@ve/certificado o SMS) para Importass.
• Justificante especial si aplica (p. ej., defunción del empleador).

Step by step

1. Go to importass.seg-social.es and open the Empleados de hogar section.
2. Click Comunicar baja. Identify with Cl@ve, certificado or SMS.
3. Select your hogar (CCC) and the worker. Enter date and reason for the deregistration. Make sure the date is correct.
4. Confirm, sign and submit. Download the PDF receipt. That’s the important bit: contributions should stop from that date.
5. Check in Importass (your personal area) that the employment shows as en baja with the correct date.
6. No digital means? Book cita previa at the TGSS and submit the paper deregistration at the office that day (signed paper and your DNI).

Time‑saving tips

• Do the deregistration the same day of the termination or the next day. You avoid surcharges and surprises.
• If you log in by SMS, check first that your phone number is updated in the Seguridad Social. If it isn’t, you'll get an error at the end.
• If the termination has a future date, you can already schedule the deregistration in Importass. Better that than forgetting and being charged for a whole month.
• Keep the PDF receipt and a screenshot of the status in Importass. It saves you if there are discrepancies in contributions.

Common mistakes that can mess you up

1. Entering the wrong date (one day late): you get charged extra contributions and may face surcharges.
2. Misidentifying the worker (wrong NAF): the deregistration won't affect the right person and the error may not be obvious until you see the charges.
3. Relying on phone login without it being linked: SMS login fails if your number isn't in the database. Fix: use Cl@ve or certificado.
4. Leaving it past 3 days: you enter fines territory. If you already missed it, do it as soon as possible.
5. Not checking the CCC: if you have more than one household, deregister the worker under the correct CCC or contributions will continue under the other one.
