@AlexFromBelgium Hello Alex. I saw your message. Thanks for sharing info about OECD visa. If i understood completely, you meant that F card holders need to fill out eTA or they have visa free entry to OECD countries? Can you give more detail and source about it? Thank you very much

Hello,

what I mean is that, if you've a resident permit, you can, for example travel to South Korea without the need of a visa, blablabla... but there are still exception depending on your nationality! (North Korea, China, Irak, Syria, ...)

Keep in mind that you must check depending on your own case!

It's case by case, you've to read the exceptions of visa per country, but some OECD country allow visa-free access if you live in EU

Edit: actually South Korea just changed their policies... What I was stating was correct before the end of covid19 period, now there's an ETA + some countries need visa even if EU resident, ....

As I was saying: things move pretty fast, you've to check all the time & keep up to date!

@AlexFromBelgium Thank you very much for your response. Well i have gone through alot of info regarding this, all embassies immigration departments differentiate you on basis of your passport and they just minus the advantage of having a EU residence permit. Like they say ok if you have Belge passeport, fine enough come with eTA or without visa but if your passport is third country national, you are subject to visa. thats it. Thats why i wanted to know if there is an advantage with F card or some other card for OECD countries. Could you kindly refer to a web link or something like that to see precise info about it.

@AlexFromBelgium I am talking about OECD countries precisely ( F card and entry to OECD visa free), after all, if its all about my nationality, then the question is already answered. No worries

Before covid19 I could tell you yes, you've many OECD country's facility / no need for a visa.

But it seems that the foreigner departement of each EU country have only been busy working to get back all the visa-free access like before the pandemia, rather than trying to give advantage to all their residents like before. Things will probably change "soon".

Bah technically, keep in mind that as a F card holder and if you're working, even half time in Belgium, you'll get any tourist visa for any trip (okay except North Korea, Syria, ...)

As per definition, a visa is to verify that you stay for some defined time in a country for a reason, that you won't overstay/illegal immigration, and so with a Belgian salary, bah.... you'll get your visa without much question (if you have...)

+ as a family member of an EU, if you travel with your partner that's often a reason enough to give your visa without any question as by default the BE/EU partner is considered to have enough money for the trip without any proof to give...
