Belgian Chamber Committee on Naturalisations

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

The Naturalisations Committee (

Senate
, is responsible for granting naturalisation.

The committee can decide to approve or reject the application, or to postpone the decision. In this case, the committee must request new advice before the final decision is made. In case an application is approved, the committee then forwards a naturalisation bill to the full Chamber, which must approve it in order for naturalisation to be granted. Once a naturalisation bill is signed and promulgated by the King, it is published in the Belgian Official Journal. The applicant has the Belgian nationality from the date of publication in the Official Journal.

The Naturalisations Committee consists of 17 Representatives.[1]
