Hi,

Is it possible to open a bank account with my apartment contract? I haven't gotten my residency yet.

Thanks

well, a certificate of residence/proof of residentship should be enough to open a bank account in Belgium.
So, I guess it's doable especially if the purpose is to receive your salary on your bank account...

Don't forget to bring your passport as well

Yes it's possible but you may need to get a HR letter from your employer.
