New in Brussles and want to meet people? by Andres402
Hi everyone! I've been checking the forum lately and I couldn't find any meeting organized. So I've decided to open a new post and see if can arrange something! I'll start by introducing myself. My name is Andres, I'm a spanish student. I've been ...

I'd also like to meet up, I've been here since April and don't know anyone outside work... :( Read More


Legality of a foreign car in Belgium by AndresGonnzalvez
Hello everybody, I have one legal problem with my car, its an spanish car, and I have it in Brussels since two months. I had one day one problem with police, who told me I had to change the residence of the car to Belgian's papers. Due to my ...

I don't see how it can be tax evasion, I'm paying tax for it in the UK and they are both in the EU, but I'm not going to argue over the technicalities as I'm sure you know what you're talking about. Whichever way I look at it I have done nothing ... Read More

Well this is all very interesting to me, and frankly I am amazed at the over zealous approach being attributed to the Belgian authorities, but then I am pretty new here. I have recently had my motorbike here from the UK, it's just gone back for ... Read More
