Where Belgian laws establish as a condition for receiving certain benefits that the periods of coverage be completed in a given profession or occupation which is subject to a special pension system, in determining eligibility for such benefits only the periods completed under United States laws in the same profession or occupation shall be totalized with periods of coverage under such special system. If the total of such periods of coverage does not result in entitlement under the special system, or if totalization of such periods does not result in payment of the highest possible benefit amount, such periods shall be used to determine eligibility for benefits of the general pension system applicable under Belgian laws to employed persons.
