Hi,
My question is regarding transfer of social security benefit from another country to Belgium.
Say Example, India to Belgium.
Now if an expat who were working in India for last 12 years, now comes to Belgium.
Normally, what we think that as per Belgian Pension system he has to work 45 years for full pension & his 12 years service in India wont count!
Now if that employee has been contributing monthly to EPFO (Employees Provident Fund Organisation), New Delhi, India - the Indian State social security provider, it seems his service duration in India of social security contribution could be counted towards that 45 years in Belgium!!!
There has been a agreement in place between Govt of India & Kingdom of Belgium regarding this since 2009, refer this link,

dear members please review and comment, similar agreement are in place for other nationalities also.
