What this document is
“Solicitud de prestación por riesgo durante el embarazo o la lactancia natural” (form 8-007) is the official form of Spain’s National Social Security Institute (INSS). It is used to claim the benefit when working conditions are a risk to pregnancy or breastfeeding and the worker cannot be moved to a safe position: the contract is suspended (employees) or the activity stops (self-employed).
The current edition, 8-007 cas V.10 (20260722), is downloaded from the Social Security website.
Who applies and where
- employees and self-employed workers (autónomas), foreign nationals with an NIE included;
- important: the benefit is granted and paid by whoever covers occupational risks (for employees, the employer’s choice). If that is a mutua colaboradora, apply to it; form 8-007 is for cases where it is INSS;
- online — on the Portal de Prestaciones (prestaciones.seg-social.es);
- by post — a signed copy of the form;
- in person — at a Social Security centre (CAISS) by appointment: inss.seg-social.es/cita or 91 541 25 30 / 901 10 65 70.
What the form asks
- the applicant’s details, address, mobile and e-mail — a footnote on the form says these are essential for notices;
- type of work: employee or self-employed;
- reason — pregnancy or breastfeeding; date of contract suspension or end of activity, expected delivery date or child’s date of birth;
- tax data (province, voluntary IRPF rate), co-official language, statements;
- payment account (IBAN in the applicant’s name), consents, place and date of signing.
What to bring
The list from the form’s own “Registro INSS” sheet:
- ID: DNI, passport, TIE/NIE (and the representative’s, if any);
- the employer’s certificate of occupational-risk contribution bases for the month before the suspension;
- the medical risk certificate, if INSS does not already have it;
- the employer’s statement that no compatible post exists and notifying the suspension; for autónomas — the activity status declaration;
- for breastfeeding — the child’s birth certificate; with a representative — proof of representation.
If documents are missing, INSS will ask for them; you then have 10 days from the notice.
