Healthcare in Brussels is of a high standard, and expats should have no problem finding top-quality medical care in Belgium’s capital.

By law, all employees and self-employed people must contribute to an insurance fund for their healthcare in Brussels. This is done as part of the social security enrolment process.

New arrivals should investigate whether they qualify for non-resident tax status. If this is the case, they may not be required to contribute to national social security, in which case their employer’s healthcare plan will probably cover them. Ambulances are not part of the national healthcare plan, but may be covered by private insurance for those who have it.
