Visa for family of work permit holder

Where have you read about such a visa ? Any official websites you are referring to ?

I couldn't find any official website in this regard.
However, the word file that I received from BOXX in Belgium entitled as "VISA APPLICATION FOR FAMILY OF A WORK PERMIT/HOSTING AGREEMENT HOLDER"!
The main required documents including medical certificate, police certificate, lease contract and copy of my work permit.

Embassy in Tokyo told me that the family reunion visa takes more than 6 months, but I am wondering that this type of visa be applicable for my husband since I haven't settle in Belgium and do not have residence card.

We are going to apply for visa together. Could you help me for which type of visa he should apply?

If that a pdf or word document and an actual application form ? In that case it is just the filename of that document.

The correct visa type is family re-union for your spouse. You both can apply at the same time for your visas.

Thank you for your reply.

I've found the for family reunion visa, I should first settle in Belgium. In addition, this type of visa takes more than 6 months. I don't think that this is applicable for my husband.

How about dependent visa?

Family reunion visa and dependent visas are one and the same thing. The 6 months processing time is when one of you is already in Belgium and the partner applies for this visa separately.

You can apply for your husband's dependent/re-union visa at the same time when you apply for your visa (supported by your WP). There are many threads in the forum with more information on the documentation and experiences from people who did this in the past.
