As of Tuesday March 17, new asylum seekers will not be registered at the arrival center ‘Petit-Château’ until further notice.

Fedasil needed to urgently create a large amount of temporary places to guarantee accommodation for all asylum seekers.

From the moment that a migrant submits an application for protection in Belgium, they are entitled to material assistance. What exactly is this assistance?

The arrival centre of Fedasil (Brussels) adapts its opening days during the holiday period.

Fedasil urgently needs additional places to house asylum seekers.

An increase in the number of asylum seekers entering the reception network of Fedasil marked 2018.

19,500 asylum seekers joined Fedasil's reception network in 2018, resulting in a need for additional places.

Last week, Fedasil organised the last conference of EPRA, the platform where 14 European countries work together on reception.

This Monday 3 December, the ‘Petit-Château’ has become an ‘arrival centre’ for asylum seekers who have just arrived in Belgium.

Brussel Onthaal and BIAL, the Brussels Institute for Applied Linguistics of the VUB (University of Brussels) work to improve the communication with new asylum seekers. Their project is subsidised this year by Fedasil.
