At a glance

• Effective 11 December 2025, companies may retain up to 10% of their total headcount as interns (previously limited to 5%).
• Interns gain the right to paid days off, proportional to the internship duration. There is no statutory minimum, and unused days are not compensated.
• Companies hiring interns must now submit only a copy of the internship certificate to claim the state benefit, replacing previous documentation requirements.
