How can Belarusians get an official job in Belgium?

As in other EU countries, work in Belgium is possible for Belarusians with a Polish work visa type D. However, for this, official employment in a Polish company and a business letter from this organization type A-1 is required. With this Polish work visa, you can legally stay in EU countries for only 30 days a year. But if you have a business letter, your stay in Europe is not limited. Therefore, having a Polish work visa, a Belarusian can travel to Belgium to earn a living and receive a decent European salary.
