Moving to Belgium After Brexit

After Brexit, UK citizens wishing to move to Belgium no longer enjoy the freedom of movement. The process has become more complex — UK nationals now require a visa for prolonged stays, and it is crucial to research the most appropriate visa type based on your specific needs. Ensure thorough preparation before arriving on Belgian soil.

Visa Routes for British Citizens Moving to Belgium

For long-term residency in Belgium from non-EU countries, the D visa is the most applicable option. This long-stay visa allows holders to reside for three to six months and apply for a residence permit. Requirements may include:

  • Attend a meeting at the nearest Belgian embassy or consulate
  • Documentation verifying a valid passport and civil status (marriage and birth certificates)
  • Comprehensive private health insurance and a medical certificate from the NHS

Paperwork for Moving Household Goods to Belgium After Brexit

  • Inventory with consecutive numbers and your signature
  • Passport copy with signature
  • Original proof of living abroad for the twelve months prior to inscription/arrival in Belgium
  • Certificate of residence from the Belgian commune where you will establish residency
  • Completed and signed customs declaration

Household goods can be imported duty-free within one year following the official change of residence. Where all documents are unavailable, a guarantee (bond) of 10% customs duties + 21% VAT may apply. Belgium no longer allows duty-free entry for secondary residences.

Why People Choose to Move from the UK to Belgium

Belgium is one of the UK's closest European neighbours — and a popular destination for professionals relocating to Brussels for work with the EU institutions, NATO, or the many multinational companies based there. Families moving to Antwerp, Ghent, or Bruges are drawn by the high quality of life, excellent schooling, and easy travel links back to the UK.

Post-Brexit, moving to Belgium requires customs documentation and proof of residence, but the process is well-established. Gentlevan Removals has helped many customers relocate to Belgium and handles all the paperwork, inventory declarations, and customs clearance — so your belongings arrive without delays or unexpected charges.
