Verified official information
What to know about Belgium visa photo
A Belgian application may start in VisaOnWeb, but the file is then submitted with a recent 35 × 45 mm ICAO photo and the documents for the selected category.
From everyday portrait to compliant result: Belgium visa photo
We correct the framing and prepare the light grey background while preserving your natural appearance.
How it is actually submitted
Book the instructed consular post or centre after completing the form. You submit the photo there and provide fingerprints where applicable; the online form does not replace this stage.
How to prepare
Use white or light-grey background, colour, sharp quality, less than six months old, closed mouth and an untilted head.
Common rejection reasons
- Assuming VisaOnWeb completes the whole process
- Old or non-35 × 45 mm photo
- Smile, tilt or dark background
- Missing the biometric appointment
We check the requirements for you
You don't need to memorize measurements or biometric rules. Imagokit applies this document's official setup and checks the result before delivery.
