The European Commission ‘Foreign residence allowance’ is one of allowances paid to employees of EU institutions if they had to relocate to the seat of their EU institution from another EU Member State and satisfy some other conditions. It is paid to “expats” who do not qualify for the ‘Expatriation allowance‘.
