Hi all!

I’m a non-EU PhD student living in Brugge, and I have already been here for 7 months. Since receiving my RP card, I have noticed that I always trigger the alarm whenever I pass through a grocery store or any shop’s security alarm.

I conducted some experiments to find the cause, and I discovered that when I bring my RP card, the alarms are triggered. This also happened when I visited the Netherlands and went to their stores.

I know it’s just a small inconvenience, but to be honest, it stresses me out, especially since I’m a foreigner.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.
