Hello and welcome !

To work in Belgium, employers usually look for either recognised qualifications or strong professional experience in a specific field. For non-EU nationals, a work permit is required, and in many cases the employer must show they could not find a suitable candidate locally.

Without formal qualifications, it can be more difficult, but practical experience in sectors facing shortages. Securing a job offer from an employer willing to support a work permit is essential. Please also note that age can be a factor in the decision, and at 62, it will be a barrier.
