Dear Friend of Flanders,

Flanders and Brussels are ready, willing and able to welcome visitors. As you would expect, some additional measures are currently in place, in order to ensure the safety of everyone. 

If you are travelling to Flanders, Brussels or elsewhere in Belgium for a duration of 48 hours or more, you will need to complete a Passenger Locator Form, within the 48 hours before your arrival in Belgium. 

Wearing of a mask is compulsory for anyone over the age of 12 in confined public spaces, including shops, museums, theatres, on public transport, when moving about in restaurants, and in streets and other public areas in some cities; it is therefore recommended to carry a mask with you at all times. People are expected to keep a social distance of 1.5m (5ft). 

Most visitor attractions, bars, restaurants and cafés are now open, with extra safety measures. Some museums/galleries are only accepting visitors with advance reservations, therefore please check in advance the measures in place at specific places you plan to visit. It is strongly recommended to make reservations for restaurants. 

Look up more detailed information regarding the safety measures in place across Belgium.

We hope to welcome you soon, with twice the heart, love and hospitality. As ever, you are most welcome! 

Warm regards,
VISITFLANDERS.
