Buying online a SIM card while still abroad
Hello,
I am trying to buy an Orange SIM card online while still leaving abroad. I will start to work in Belgium in February 2023 as an european citizen but there are some issues so far I could not surpass, such has:
Not having a 10-digit mobile phone number
Not having a Belgian resident identity card starting with B (as well has National register number)
Does any now know how to solve this?

Hello @Ana4
I think you'd better keep your mobile subscription from your european country for the moment. Roaming is free anyway.
That will buy you time to get your resident identity card.
Once that is done, you can go to a shop for a mobile BE subscription
Be warned that a BE subscription does not include calling european (other than BE) numbers while you're on a belgian network
Success
