Federal anonymous form · priority 80
Regions: brussels, flemish, walloon
Kind: agent-walks-user-through-form
Primary actor: both
Handoff: confirmation
Agent does: Open the directory at diplomatie.belgium.be/fr/ambassades-et-consulats and walk the customer through the country selector. Read back the address, hours, and consular-jurisdiction note.
You do: Confirm the country of issue and confirm the post is the one the customer can reach (some Belgian posts cover multiple countries from a single accreditation).
To resume: Customer notes the embassy address. The agent records the post identifier and continues to the legalisation-by-embassy step described in the parent skill.
The steps after authentication / handoff are described from documentation, not yet confirmed by a real Be Civic user. If reality differs, please tell us so we can fix the entry.
Try thisNotes: Probed 2026-05-12: diplomatie.belgium.be/fr/ambassades-et-consulats returns HTTP 200 with French landing copy ('Sur cette page, vous trouverez les adresses des ambassades et consulats belges à l'étranger'). Per-class template per spec §6.12.3 federal-anonymous-form. OVERLAP: this candidate is also expected from the apostille walk (apostille-foreign-document-hague) — id is intentionally shared so the lead deduplicates on consolidation.

Regions: brussels, flemish, walloon
Kind: varies-per-partner
Try thisPrimary actor: agent
Agent does: Fetch the HCCH status table and confirm that the customer's origin country is not listed as a contracting party (or that the document predates the country's accession date).
You do: Confirm the country of origin and the document's date of issue.
To resume: Agent records the confirmation and proceeds with the consular-legalisation route.
Notes: Probed 2026-05-12: HCCH status table returns HTTP 200 with the 129-party convention status table. Public, no auth. Used as a precondition-check before committing the customer to the consular-legalisation chain — saves a wasted trip if the country is actually Hague-party (route to apostille skill instead). OVERLAP: id may also appear under apostille walk's enumeration as a corroboration source.

Offline commune visitfallback only · priority 10
Regions: brussels, flemish, walloon
Kind: email
Primary actor: user
Handoff: physical-presence
Agent does: Tell the customer to contact the SPF Affaires étrangères Legalisations desk by email or in person if the online directory does not resolve the post (some countries have no resident Belgian mission and are covered by a Belgian post in a neighbouring country).
You do: Email or visit the desk with the country and document type. Receive guidance on which Belgian post is competent.
To resume: Customer reports back which Belgian post was identified.
The steps after authentication / handoff are described from documentation, not yet confirmed by a real Be Civic user. If reality differs, please tell us so we can fix the entry.
Notes: Offline fallback per graceful-degradation requirement and §6.12.4 physical-presence/offline invariant. Used when the online country directory does not surface a Belgian post for the customer's country (rare; mostly small jurisdictions covered by neighbouring posts). OVERLAP: same id may appear under apostille walk.
