Hi all,


I'm linving and working in Belgium since Feb.2022. Currently I have F card.

As far as I remember, from 2027 I could be entitled to have F+ card. But I would like to apply L-card.

Is it possible? Is there any specific requirement for that?

Thanks.

Best,

@1982kim hi, not sure why you want to be on L card in lieu of F+ card. the best would be to ask the people in your commune, but IMO your question is possible, as much as it is possible to change your residence card from A to F at any time. as far as i know, there is/are no rule/s that restricts an F card from going into an L card, when you can meet the requirements of the L card.
