hi.. I got an offer from KU Leuven Belgium for a Research Associate position. I have to submit the medical certificate and criminal record check certificate for a single permit application. currently, I am staying in the USA for 6 months. please guide me how to make these certificates.

[@joshibaba.]

Hello Vikash, congratulations for the new position:) If you are planning to apply visa from the US then you can get medical certificate from any of the recognised hospitals mentioned on the VFS website. For the PCC, I would say check with careers department from KU Leuven they should be able to help you as. If you apply for visa from India then it is very straight forward, but the PCC requires you to stay for minimum one year at your current address in India but considering you have a US visa there should be some alternatives.

Hi! I just applied for the PCC, but I think I wrongly chose the reason. I actually ‘Long Term Stay’ instead of ‘Education/Research’. Will there be any problem? Can you please help?

[@joshibaba.]

Usually it shouldn't be a big issue but I wuld recommend to drop a mail to VFS helpline.

Hey @somyanigam8197 , I did the same mistake today and now I'm worried if it would be an issue as there's no option to edit my application. Can you give an update if you faced any issues because of it?

Hi, Do we require PCC and medical certificate for children also traveling belgium on dependent visa? Can you please help me on this?

I think it depends only on age, but I would suggest to verify it from vfs website. I should have mentioned the proper links in the video description :)

[@rhythmadhikari9762]

do we also need travel insurance? if we are required to have travel insurance, how long do we need it for? I have a certificate of insurability from an insurance provider in Belgium. How long of a travel insurance did you make for your visa application?

[@joshibaba.]

What I have learned from someone who travelled a couple of months ago that you can have an insurance from India for 3 months for visa purposes, and upon arrival in Belgium you can register for a Belgian insurance :)

[@joshibaba.]

As mentioned, only specific hospitals and specific doctors from the hospital are authorized to issue the medical certificate. You can find the link to know the ones near to your metropolitan area in the video description:)

Is your medical certificate a 3 pager or just one certificate

[@joshibaba.]

I don’t remember exactly but I think it’s one certificate but depending on the (recognised) doctor/hospital you can get complete report.

What type of tests are included in medical

[@prabhdeepsingh5642]

Can you please tell me if we can get medical tests done before applying for visa and then upload the results alongwith other documents when applying? Or can it be done only when you have applied for visa and a file number is generated? I am applying for student visa for New Zealand.

[@joshibaba.]

Mostly, you have to do the tests first as your application will be incomplete if you don't have the medical certificate. During an appointment in the authorized hospital you have to mention the country you are applying the visa for. At least this was my experience, but you can definitely confirm it the hospital that you close to your residence :)

Do we need you have apostille stamp on both police clearance certificate and medical certificate or just on PCC ? For belgium (Ghent)

Medical certificate isn't needed to be stamped just the PCC and Degree:)

@@joshibaba. Hi , Could you plz tell me about legalization of medical certificate ? should it be done before visa appointment or submitted along with visa application for legalization ??( I am based in Hyderabad ) . Thank you for the valuable information

[@joshibaba.]

@@deshpande03 legalization of medical certificate is not needed as only specific hospitals are allowed to provide the medical reports. You can check for hospitals based in Hyderabad or nearby city that is authorized by Belgian embassy, once you get a certificate from that hospital you don't need to legalize it further as it was already authorized:)

If I am NOT staying at a rural area, and I am staying in the city, will I receive the PCC at the 1st appointment at PSK itself? .. or do i still have to wait for 2 weeks?

You still have to wait for around 2 weeks:) The flow is common for city and rular area except just the police offices are different.

I have a question regarding PCC, I have resided in Qatar for 5 months, then in Oman for 2.5 months and later 2.5 months in Qatar. Finally, I am in Saudi Arabia for one year. I can obtain PCC for Saudi Arabia and Indian PCC as well. Will I require PCC for Qatar and Oman as my stay was less. Can you guide me on this matter.

[@joshibaba.]

As far as I know you only have to submit PCC from a country/location where your stay was more than one year, but I would recommend to check with vfs global just to confirm :)

You need to submit just your offer letter, and passport alone. If the current resistance is different from the one on passport then an address proof as well:)

Does person below 21 years old also has to apply for pcc ?
