Question regarding D-Visa (Belgium)

Hello everyone.


I came to Belgium on a work permit and in this regard I received a D visa in my home country (valid till Jan 2024). After arriving in Belgium I registered myself at the local townhall with my visa and travel documents and I was given an A card (valid till year 2025).


After being in the job for a couple of months, things did not work out and I had to leave the job. After that i was told by the single permit dept to find a new job within 3 months, otherwise your rite to stay in belgium will expire after 3 months.


I tried but did not find the job and therefore have to move to another country within that 3 month span. Deadline expired on last May 2023.


Now my question is, can I travel within Europe on this D visa that I got in my home country (valid till Jan 2024)? There are no cancellation stamps etc on this visa.




Thanks in advance.

What i remember is when you get residence card your d visa is revoked, thats why when you order residence card they tell that you are not allowed to leave belgium

Thank you for your reply.


Does the revocation process require a stamp on the visa stating that it has been revoked cuz on my visa there is no such stamp or remarks etc?

Need help with immigration or administrative procedures in Belgium?
Get in touch with an immigration lawyer

No they don't do any stamp.
