Sending an employee to work in Australia without moving them to another social security scheme falls within a precise framework, which depends first of all on the relationship between the sending country and Australia.
A badly prepared posting cannot be put right afterwards: the local institutions call for proof of continued affiliation to the scheme of origin at the time of an inspection, and an employee left uncovered is moved retroactively to the local scheme, contributions and penalties included. Entry formalities, permitted duration and prior notifications are handled with a correspondent established on the spot.
The country lies outside the European Union and outside the European Economic Area: the A1 certificate has no standing there. Whether the employee remains in the scheme of origin then depends on the bilateral social security agreement, if any, concluded with the sending country; where no such agreement exists, dual affiliation must be expected and budgeted into the assignment.
Describe your requirement. It is put to the partners in that country as an anonymous summary, and your contact details are passed on to the selected firm alone.
