Successful family reunification

If you have just completed our simulator, you are eligible to apply for a family reunion visa in Belgium. This is an important step.
You can now start preparing your application.

If you come directly to this page, please note that it is dedicated to people who wish to prepare their application for family reunification with a foreign national holding an EU Blue Card or a long-term residence permit in another EU country, and who wish to bring in their adult child with a disability, without going through an immigration lawyer.

At La Cour des Grands, we have developed a clear, rigorous and accessible method to help you put together a complete file that complies with the requirements of Belgian law. You benefit from university-level support, comparable to that of a lawyer specializing in immigration law, while retaining the freedom to proceed at your own pace, at a much more affordable rate.
