BELGIAN IMMIGRATION LAWYER

Civil status records

A foreign, missing or incorrect civil-status document can block a marriage, nationality declaration or residence procedure.

THOROUGH CASE ASSESSMENT

What matters?

Belgian municipalities and consulates examine foreign records for form, substance and recognition. Problems involving a name, place of birth, parentage or authenticity may affect several administrative files.

I assess how the registration can be corrected, whether a substitute record is required and which court is competent. Legal assistance may also be needed after a refusal to celebrate a marriage or register legal cohabitation.

COMMON QUESTIONS

a personal answer.

  • How can an error in my birth certificate be corrected?
