The Belgium Business Visa (Schengen Type C) is for Indian professionals travelling to Belgium for meetings, conferences, training, trade fairs or other business-related events. It does NOT permit taking up employment. Applications are made on Visa on Web and submitted at VFS with biometrics.
What it costs
Paid directly to Belgium / VFS — these are not our service fee, and we never mark them up.
Figures per VFS Global, last verified 9 Jun 2026. Fees change without notice — the official page is final.
The Schengen visa fee is €90 (about ₹10,100 from 27 Aug 2026), charged in INR at the current exchange rate and subject to change without notice. VFS service charge is ₹2,750 per application (incl. CGST 9% + SGST 9%). Optional services: Courier ₹775, Courier Assurance ₹1,260, SMS ₹283, Premium Lounge ₹4,765, Prime-Time Submission ₹5,165, Prime-Time Collection ₹810. Family members of an EU/EEA/Swiss citizen and children under 6 are exempt from the visa fee. All visa fees and service charges, once paid, are non-refundable.
Flights · Hotels · Insurance · Itinerary
Belgium applies the Schengen rules, so travel insurance is not a nice-to-have — it is a legal condition of the visa.
2 of 4 are compulsory for Belgium
Where people slip: Flying into one city and out of another with nothing showing how you travel between them. Officers read the whole route, and an unexplained gap reads as a plan that does not hold together.
Book for ₹708 (+₹472 per family member)Where people slip: Free-cancellation bookings are accepted, but if the entire file is free-cancellation the officer sees a trip nobody has committed to. Some of it should be real spend.
Confirmed hotel booking, ₹590 per hotel: message us firstWhere people slip: Buying cover for the adults and forgetting the children. Every traveller needs their own EUR 30,000, infants included — a real refusal we have seen on a family of four.
What a Schengen policy must showWhere people slip: Spending more nights in another Schengen country than in Belgium. That gets a file rejected before it is even assessed.
The letter your itinerary attaches toWe can arrange the flight reservation, the hotel and the itinerary for your Belgium file — each sold separately.
We are a B2B travel agency as well as a visa consultancy, working with partners including Riya Travel — so the flight reservation and the confirmed hotel booking both come from us, and you deal with one team. Every booking is a real one under your own name. We do not sell travel insurance: buy the policy directly from an insurer.
None of them is part of our visa fee: each is bought on its own, at the price below, with or without our visa service.
Flight reservation ₹708 (+₹472 per extra family member) · Confirmed hotel booking ₹590 per hotel · Travel itinerary ₹1,499. GST included.
Delivery. Usually within 30 minutes during office hours, Mon–Sat 10:00–18:00 IST. Confirmed hotel bookings are not bought online: message us first on WhatsApp or email info@sureshotvisa.com with the city, dates and travellers.

Frequently asked
No. A Schengen business visa allows meetings, conferences, training and business events — but not paid employment. Taking up work requires a work authorisation / single permit, which is a separate national process.
It must confirm your identity, the purpose of the journey (meetings/conference/training/business event), and the period and place of your intended stay. Your Indian employer's cover letter must confirm the same.

Your fee, in one glance

Before you file
Filed on a guessed checklist, the government fee is gone on a refusal and the refusal follows every future application. Filed after a consultant at our licensed firm has read the papers against each other, the file answers the officer's questions before they are asked. Same Belgium rules, different outcome. How we do that is written once, in full, on the method page rather than repeated here.
