Business Visa

These are the requirements for Filipino citizens who wish to make a business trip to Belgium

In principle no more extra delays will be granted to complete an incomplete visa application.

The consulate will make its decision based on the application file as lodged by the applicant, whether complete or not.

Ø A list of the required documents for every type of visa is available in the waiting area of the visa section.

Ø The list of required documents are available on our website http://www.diplomatie.be/manila/

Ø Can be obtained at the window of the visa section on simple request.

Based on these announcements we may, beyond reasonable doubt, assume that the lodging of an incomplete application means the applicant either does not take his/her application serious or is simply incapable to submit the requested documents.

PS 1: Whilst processing an application, consulates might request the applicant to submit documents other than those mentioned in the published lists. Extra delays will be granted in that case.

PS 2: Whilst processing an application de consulates might call the applicant in for an interview in the consulate. Personal appearance to lodge the application is not considered an interview but a first contact to be able to decide on the admissibility of the application.
