Living in a different region with a single permit

Sean789

Hello,

Can you change the region you live in if you have a non-eu single permit (or you're currently applying for one)?

Do you need to work and live in the same region? Or for instance, could your job be based in Brussels, but you live in the Flemish region?

Sure you can. It is same country.

Does that still apply if you work from home/remotely? So if your work permit is granted in one region, but you work from home in a different region?

It doesnt matter.

You are overthinking. Region does not matter at all
