European Union
Each Member State of the European Union has its own system and in general a worker should claim unemployment benefits in the country where he last worked. For a person working in another country than its residence country (a cross-border worker), he will have to claim benefits in his country of residence. More specific rules and information is available on the Your Europe portal.
