Dear All,

I was wondering if it's possible to register to the commune with future dated rent contract.

In my case; I've the rent contract but flat will be available on 1st of January.
Does anyone know that is it possible to register to the commune with this scenario? Do I have to wait until 1st of Jan?

Thanks in advance.

Hello all,

Sharing the update for people who might experience the same case with me.

I've registered to the commune with my situation-explained first post of the topic-.
