Where to join a social insurance fund in Belgium

Offices in your city, with the visit rules for each

Each fund runs its own branches, and visits are often by appointment, sometimes only by phone or video call. For each office you can see which fund it belongs to, how it receives new members and what to have ready before you call.

    For the personal online form, prepare your identity and contact details, national-register number if available, start date, activity description, enterprise number or its pending status, business bank details if available and the category you believe applies. Main activity, secondary activity, pensioner, student, helper and assisting spouse are distinct choices requiring assessment. Confirm the completed affiliation before starting; company affiliation and health-insurer membership remain separate. Ask about professional-card requirements or exemptions and cross-border insurance before assuming Belgian affiliation applies.
