The reason is, during this time the decision regarding the Belgium student visa application is made. A Belgium student visa is a D visa (or national long-stay visa) given to international students to pursue full-time studies at an educational institution in Belgium. This visa is only available for programs that are longer than 90 days. This blog covers everything you need to know about the Belgium student visa processing time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-the-belgium-student-visa-processing-time\"><span id=\"what-is-the-belgium-student-visa-processing-time\">What is the Belgium Student Visa Processing Time?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As per Belgium Article 61\/1\/1 of the law of December 15, 1980, the authorities responsible for examining the visa applications must decide within 90 days of issuing an acknowledgement of receipt of the application. This means that the Belgium student visa processing time is 90 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the processing time for studies at higher educational institutions generally takes much longer. This is because priority is given to applications to study at a public higher educational institution in Belgium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img  decoding=\"async\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"belgium student visa processing time\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/docsz\/AD_4nXfjlLZNUB7B49E5it_WztTvMaF17Dxp4zX0uD6AsuwFXBNbLVX6endn_FF5NVKrWvVsInPXB-RvH24q_ZFR-Sr87WIxE1s8pbBWBpXIBuhYHsF1R_17LvUe-ZhOO0CfqnQ3DtNDuCHzmc5b_Vbvg1IOD_6s?key=TsswZLQFgwdPyH37D_W8RA\" ><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, every year the Belgian Immigration Office refuses student visa applications that cannot be examined. As a result, if you are applying for a student visa you must know that due to the large number of visa applications, the Belgium authorities may not be able to decide on the specified date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-belgium-student-visa-an-overview-nbsp\"><span id=\"belgium-student-visa-an-overview\">Belgium Student Visa: An Overview\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Belgium is a part of the Schengen area. Therefore, two types of visas are available for education. Those who want to undertake studies in less than 90 days will have to apply for a Schengen short-term visa.\u00a0 On the other hand, to study full-time at a higher educational institution longer than 90 days you need to apply for a D visa or a National long-stay visa. Therefore, if you want to enrol in an undergraduate or postgraduate program you need a D visa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-belgium-student-visa-requirements-nbsp\"><span id=\"belgium-student-visa-requirements\">Belgium Student Visa Requirements\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to present several documents for a smooth visa application process.
