You are expatriated in Belgium and, under the regime of the regulation 1408/71 of the  EEC, you remained  subject to the social security of your country of origin, member state of the European Union, since five years.

Do you know that if you retire in the three years following the expiration of these five years you can remain subject to the foreign social security while remaining in Belgium ?

Do you know that even if you do not intend to retire it is possible to benefit from  a 6 months to one year extension to remain under the home country social security umbrella if you meet some requirements ?
