Indian travelers who have received both shots of Covishield vaccine or any other EMA approved vaccine are eligible to travel to Belgium

Schengen Area, named after “the Schengen Agreement” signifies a zone where 26 different European nations, acknowledged the abolishment of their internal borders with other member nations and outside, for the free and unrestricted movement of people, goods, services, and capital, in harmony with common rules for controlling external borders and fighting criminality by strengthening common judicial system and police cooperation. This has made ease for passengers to travel to any one or several Schengen countries on a single visa issued by any one Schengen member country. Borders of these countries only exist on Map but in reality in terms of visas these are borderless countries, it is like moving within the same country.

Travelers who are fully vaccinated with 2 doses of any EMA-approved vaccine (Pfizer, Covishield, Moderna, AstraZeneca etc) and chilled under 12 years of age are exempted from quarantining on arrival in Belgium

A Schengen Visa (issued by a consulate or embassy of a Schengen State) is valid for all 26 States of the Schengen Area (including the European territory of Belgium), unless it is marked otherwise on the visa sticker. So you do not need another visa to enter or stay in the European territory of Belgium. However, you must be in possession of documentary evidence for the reasons of your stay and your means of support. Schengen Area comprises of the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland

This will vary from Country to Country, some Schengen countries will allow Applicant to travel by carrying both Old & New passport, if visa is valid on Old passport & some countries will require applicant to transfer the visa from Old passport to New passport. We suggest you check with our GoVisaX Expert team on this before you travel.

From 02nd November 2015, Schengen Countries have started Biometrics process for visa submission, so every applicant has to go personally to VFS (Visa Facilitation Center), a body appointed by Consulates OR in some countries directly he has to visit Consulate/Embassy for completing Biometrics procedure i.e. to capture Finger Printing, palm printing, Live photo.

Yes Indian travelers need a negative RT-PCR test report to travel to Belgium, for which test must be conducted within 72 hours prior departure

As per the Standard Rule set by Schengen authorities, Biometrics is valid for 59 months & it is applicable for all Schengen countries & it can be easily identified from VIS remark on your visa issued after your First biometrics done, so if you have completed your Biometrics earlier for Schengen visa after 02nd November 2015 then you need not do it again for your subsequent Schengen visa application.But here again few countries will require applicant to come every time for Biometrics whenever they apply irrespective of criteria of 59 months OR few countries follow 59 months’ criteria but may call passenger for Biometrics again if there is some problem in Biometrics details captured in Visa Information System. So it is better that you check with our GoVisaX Visa Expert team before you apply for your visa.

Maximum 3 months before your travel date, Applicant can apply for Schengen visa, before that it will not be possible to apply for Visa.

No, Belgium is not allowing Indian traveler who are fully vaccinated by Covaxin as of now

In this case, you can very well travel on that visa even though it was issued before biometrics process started.
