What Belgium may ask for

Not every traveller is asked for all of these. A valid passport is checked every time; the rest is a spot check at the border, and some items belong to a visa application rather than the crossing itself.

  • Passport valid 3+ months beyond stay with 2 blank pages
  • Travel insurance with minimum 30,000 EUR medical coverage
  • Confirmed round-trip flight reservation
  • Hotel booking or invitation letter for accommodation
  • Proof of sufficient funds (95 EUR per day minimum)
  • Two recent biometric photos (35x45mm, white background)

    Entry requirements for traveling with pets (dogs and cats)

    Travelers should check with their airline for pet transport requirements before traveling, as policies differ. Dogs and cats traveling into the EU from outside the EU must meet entry requirements that vary by country of origin. Pets must be microchipped and vaccinated against rabies. Additional requirements may apply depending on where travel originates. Travelers can check the specific requirements for their country of origin on the EU government's pet travel page. Travelers bringing other animals should check the national rules of their destination country directly.
