Thank you for your information.
Do you know if I can arrange this from Brussels?
Anyone have this experience before?
I'm open for any advice about the city and the procedure related.

Maryna

There is nothing for you to arrange in Brussels regarding your work permit.
Your company will get notified by the authorities thats it ready and your HR will pick it from the commune. They will then send you the work permit by post to Indonesia with which you apply for a visa type D to come to Belgium.

Ah okay.. Then it means i should wait for it and proceed as the procedure in Indonesia.
Many thanks for your advice. It means a lot. Stay in touch and have a good day

Exactly as solexhonda suggested, all you can do now is
1. Wait for work permit to be couriered to you by your hiring organization.
2. Check what other supporting documents you need (in addition to the work permit) to apply for a D-type visa and start arranging them.
Good luck.
