Flexi-job Rules in 2026: Overview of the Conditions

The Flexi-job Rules in a Nutshell

With a flexi-job you earn extra alongside another job or your pension. There are, however, rules you need to know. We summarize them here.

The basics: who can do a flexi-job?

For a flexi-job, you must in principle have worked at least 4/5 for one or more other employers in the third quarter before the flexi-job, or be retired. If you are a student or jobseeker and did not work at least 4/5 in that quarter, you do not meet the condition. You cannot combine a regular job and a flexi-job with the same employer.

In which sectors is it possible?

Since 1 July 2026, a flexi-job is possible in almost all sectors; whether it is possible for a given job depends on the rules of the sector. Flexi-jobs are possible in both the private and the public sector. From 1 July 2026, flexi-jobs are not allowed for domestic servants (PC 323), in agriculture (PC 144), in horticulture (PC 145, except the construction and maintenance of parks and gardens) and, with a few exceptions, for funeral directors (PC 320) and in sea fishing (PC 143). In addition, sectors can apply for opt-outs, every quarter in 2026 and every year from 2027, and a sector can limit flexi-jobs to certain jobs. In the cleaning sector (PC 121), unions and employers want to limit flexi-jobs to retirees. So check what currently applies in your sector.

How much do you earn? And what about taxes?

Your flexi-wage must be at least the minimum wage that applies to your job. On your flexi-wage you pay no employee contributions, and no tax up to 18,440 euros (income year 2026); anything above that is taxed. That ceiling does not apply to retirees. If you are retired and have reached neither the legal retirement age nor 45 years of career, from 2026 you can earn at most 8,121 euros a year with a flexi-job. The employer pays an employer contribution of 28% on the flexi-wage.

What changed in 2026?

Since 1 July 2026, a flexi-job is possible in almost all sectors. In 2026, sectors can apply for an opt-out every quarter, and from 2027 every year, so the rules may still change. For income year 2026, the tax ceiling is 18,440 euros.

What should you watch out for?

If you earn more than 18,440 euros of flexi-wage in 2026, anything above that is taxed. That ceiling does not apply to retirees.
You cannot combine a regular job and a flexi-job with the same employer.
If you are retired, contact the Federal Pensions Service in advance, so you are sure that your flexi-job has no effect on the amount of your pension.
