How to obtain a UK National Insurance coverage certificate when working abroad under social security agreements

Workers employed in countries that have reciprocal social security agreements with the UK can apply for a certificate of coverage (CA9107) from HMRC to confirm they will pay contributions only to the UK rather than both countries. This document protects eligible employees from double National Insurance contributions whilst working temporarily overseas in agreement countries. The certificate must be obtained before starting work abroad to ensure proper contribution status.
