Hello,

Can you change the region you live in if you have a non-eu single permit (or you're currently applying for one)?

Do you need to work and live in the same region? Or for instance, could your job be based in Brussels, but you live in the Flemish region?

You can. I live in Brussels but work in the Flemish region. This is no problem

Does that still apply if you work from home/remotely? So if your work permit is granted in one region, but you work from home in a different region?
