Make sure you have an A1 form with you!
If you come to work in Belgium from another EU country, you need an A1 form from your home country to prove that you have acquired sufficient rights to insure yourself against medical expenses.
You must submit this A1 form when you register with a health insurance fund. You also need this form if, for example, you come to work in Belgium as a posted worker and therefore remain covered by your home country's social security system.
