Belgium visa for Indonesian citizens

For the tourist visa, Belgium’s official sources give a standard fee of €90, and applications are made on visaonweb.diplomatie.be. Processing time, as Belgium states it: The consulate normally decides within 15 calendar days of a complete application; in individual cases this can be extended up to 45 days. Longest stay on the tourist visa: Up to 90 days in any rolling 180-day period across the Schengen area.

Belgium has 1 mission in Indonesia, with its embassy in Jakarta.

In 2025, Belgium’s embassy and consulates in Indonesia (Jakarta) received 172 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 161. 3.0% of applications were refused. In 2024 the rate was much the same, 1.8%. Applications rose by 51% compared with 2024 (114).

For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 5.2% of the applications lodged in Indonesia that year, from 0.0% at the consulates of Austria to 10.1% at those of Croatia. Belgium’s consulates worldwide refused 26.1%. Belgium was the 18th most applied-for Schengen state in Indonesia.

You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Indonesia, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.

Before travelling from Indonesia to Belgium, it helps to know the official travel advice: the US State Department rates Belgium at Level 2, exercise increased caution (updated 22 July 2026), the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office does not advise against travel to Belgium (updated 17 October 2026) and the German Foreign Office has no travel warning for Belgium (updated 28 October 2026). The advice is aimed at each government’s own nationals.
