Overview

What is Belgium Apostille?

Belgium is a signatory of the Hague Convention of 1961, therefore, your documents issued from India require MEA apostille wheter you need them in Belgium. Apostille, is a computer-generated sticker containing a unique identification number that can be verified online confirming that your Indian documents are legitimate in Belgium. An apostille is valid for 6 months, however, this is subject to preferences specified in the document.

When your documents are processed and managed accurately and on time by the VHRS experts, you can get on with your goals in Belgium without the stress and set-backs.
Why Belgium Apostille Mandatory in 2025

Therefore, it is critical to follow the MEA Apostille process precisely and on time to ensure success in Belgium.

  • Faster approvals for student admissions and employment permits
