Reporting period
The window of pay data a report covers. The first Slovak period runs 1 August to 31 December 2026.
The reporting period is the span of pay data a report describes, and it is not the same as the year in which the report is filed. The first Slovak reporting period is truncated: it runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 December 2026, and the report covering it is due on 7 June 2027. Subsequent cycles cover a full preceding calendar year and are due on 15 April. Pay data that was not captured in a structured way during a reporting period cannot be reconstructed once the period has closed.
