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.

As from 14 November 2019, candidates considering their return can go to rue d'Arenberg 10 for information and guidance.

Fedasil urgently needs additional places to house asylum seekers.

Fedasil launches the new information platform www.fedasilinfo.be. The mobile website provides applicants for international protection (asylum seekers) in Belgium with reliable information in 12 languages, 8 of which include an audio version.

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

A call for tender has been issued within the context of the AMIF Specific action on unaccompanied foreign minors.

The main destination countries were Ukraine, Georgia and Romania.

Fedasil is taking the lead in a new European project aiming to bring together employers on the one hand, and job-seeking applicants for international protection and refugees on the other, in a quicker and more effective way.

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