I am going to Brussels and Leuven, Belgium to attend the PLEA2011 international conference. What materials are needed and what precautions should be taken when applying for a visa?

First of all, you need to have a passport. Go to the Exit-Entry Administration Office of the local Public Security Bureau to apply for one. Originals and copies are required

Secondly, you must have an invitation letter sent to you by the organizer.

Thirdly, you must have a dispatch letter from your unit.

Fourth, you need a visa application. The format can be found on the official Belgian website. The content should be added by yourself. It is in English.

Fifth, a copy of your unit’s business license.

Sixth, 2 photos with white background,

Seventh, copy and original of ID card

Eighth, full travel abroad insurance

After collecting the above information, you can go to Shanghai or other Belgian visa offices to apply for a visa. Be sure to bring 2,000 yuan with you.

Wish you success
