Birth Certificate for dependents in Indian Local Language

Dear Expats,

I'm in the process of applying for a work permit (including my dependents). However, my wife's birth certificate is in Tamil. Getting an english version issued by the municipal corporation will take considerable time. Can I submit a notarized english translation of the tamil birth certificate to the VFS? Have you come across such situation in the past? What are the options that we have?

Request your advice.

Best Regards,
Suk

Hi,

The procedure is clearly explained on the website of the Belgian Embassy in India.
