Visum für Belgien

Most of the time, you have to pay two types of fees on two different bank accounts: a contribution fee and a handling fee. Proof of payment of these fees must be attached to your visa application.

Please note! Some applicants are exempt from one or both fee(s).

Contribution fee

Please note that a contribution fee must be paid to the Immigration Office prior to the submission of your visa application.

To verify the amount applicable to your visa category and to complete the payment, please consult the Belgian Immigration Office website:

Before submitting a visa application to the Belgian Embassy, each applicant is required also to pay the applicable handling fee (visa fee).

Information regarding the applicable fees and possible exemptions can be found on the website of the Belgian Immigration Office: Visa fees | IBZ
