For the purpose of this Agreement: 1. "employee(s)" means diplomatic agents and members of the administrative and technical staff at diplomatic missions, and the consular officers and consular employees attached to consular posts in the receiving State. 2.

No restrictions are placed on the type of gainful occupation that may be undertaken. However, in professions where particular qualifications are required, it is necessary for the dependent to meet those qualifications. 2. The possibility to accept gainful occupation may be restricted in cases where, for security reasons, only nationals of the receiving State may be employed. 3. The validity of the Certificate issued in accordance with Article 4 paragraph 2 of this Agreement will be terminated at the end of the assignment of the employee. 1. Before a dependent may accept gainful occupation in the receiving State, the diplomatic mission of the sending State will make an official request to the Protocol Division of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the receiving State. 2. Upon verification that the person in question falls within the categories defined in this Agreement, and after observing applicable domestic procedures, the Protocol Division will promptly and officially inform the diplomatic mission that the person may obtain a gainful occupation after fulfillment of legal requirements in accordance with the applicable national legislation of the receiving State, including issuing the work permit, if necessary. 1.

In the event that a dependent who has immunity from criminal jurisdiction in accordance with the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations or the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations is accused of a criminal offence committed in relation to his or her gainful occupation, the sending State will give serious consideration to any written request that may be submitted by the receiving State for the waiving of such immunity. Dependents obtaining gainful occupation under this Agreement shall be subject to the fiscal and social security regimes of the receiving State for all matters in connection with their gainful occupation in that State.
