Together with Vlamingen in de Wereld (VIW), Overseas Social Security will be hosting a free webinar (in Dutch) about the available social security options on 22 April 2021 at 3 pm. Because, even when abroad, you can enjoy the Belgian social security benefits.

Can you enjoy the Belgian social security benefits when abroad?

Are you going to work outside the EEA or Switzerland for an extended period and do you still want to enjoy the same social security benefits as you do in Belgium? Then can apply to the Overseas Social Security (OSS), which is part of the Belgian social security system. This will secure your rights to a pension as well as the reimbursement of medical expenses.

Go to work with peace of mind, wherever you are

Overseas Social Security enables you to work outside of Europe with peace of mind. We offer an insurance package that protects you in the event of illness, disability, and retirement. You can join as a private individual or at the initiative of your employer.

You are invited to attend our webinar if you are going to live outside the EEA temporarily or permanently or if you are an employer deploying expats around the world. Find out what options there are so you can plan a future with certainty.

We will explain the insurance options of OSS during this webinar. They consist of a basic package:

  • Pension insurance
  • Insurance policy for incapacity for work, disability, and pregnancy
  • Deferred healthcare insurance

In addition, an expat or employer can also take out additional insurance policies:

  • Medical care
  • Insurance policy for workplace accidents, with optional cover for Accidents in private life

The webinar will also include an interactive element to explore the needs of Belgian expats, as well as time to answer questions from participants. The recording of the webinar will be available online afterwards.
