Tachles Israel is an independent information service, not a government authority. Check binding conditions, eligibility and deadlines with the official source.
Before you start
Keep originals by employer and year and preserve corrections as separate versions to show what was agreed, done and paid.
Who is this guide for?
Employees organising records before leaving or losing portal access.
Do not copy business or customer records that are not yours. Legal retention and limitation periods vary by issue.
The checklist
Export authorised personal records
Personal employment/pay files.
Do not bypass system permissions.
File chronologically
Dated documents.
A retained private copy is more reliable than an expiring link.
Request clear termination evidence
Signed letter; delivery evidence.
Do not edit the termination reason yourself.
Add retirement and fund records
Retirement reports; fund records.
Form 161 does not replace other employment records.
Track missing items and back up
Requests; replies.
Do not share open links containing IDs and payslips.
Official sources
These links let you check with the responsible authority. The website's verification date does not guarantee that every detail has remained up to date since then.
Frequently asked questions
Is the last payment receipt enough?
It may not explain hours, entitlements, termination reason or tax reporting; retain records explaining the payment too.
Reports help us check and update guides.
