Hello!

My name is Sandy from Philippines, my boyfriend is a Belgian and we are thinking to get married in Belgium early next year and settle down there as well. I have only some questions with the required documents and I hope someone could help me please

as i know documents coming from Ph shall be attested first in Philippines, is there anyone know exactly to where is the easiest to attest such documents? and when it comes in finding a job, after getting married I am already allowed to work? or shall I go integration first like learning Dutch?

I would really appreciate to find someone here who have encountered same as mine and would be friendly to share some info.

thank you in advance!

Regards,
Sandy

Hi Sandy,
Hope you are well.

I can't really say much about the documents required as I had a different visa to enter Belgium. In connection with your Job query, based on my experience, there was no need for me to join some integration classes, My guess is it really depends on the which part of Belgium will you be. I'm from the Wallonia side. After you got married and be issued with an F-card/ Identity card, you can immediately start looking for a job.

Cheers!
Jien

Hello,

I have A question, i want to get married with my Filipna girlfriend, now she is here already in Belgium and works in the Netherlands, but that only for a one year Contract as Aupair.

But we wanna get settled.

For all the process of papers to get done can we also do that in Belgium only via the Philippine Embassy? Or do she need to go Fly back to the Philippines.

Hi. I don't know if this group is still active or not. I'm just here to ask something. I am working in Finland but I am from the Philippines and my boyfriend is Belgian. And we are planning to get married in Belgium. What are the requirements for me and him if we wanna get married in Belgium? And is it possible to continue working in Finland after we get married or we need to stay in Belgium after that. It would be a great help for us if we can get any reply from here.

Kind Regards
