FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Who is the platform for?+
Belgian employers who want to recruit international workers, especially in shortage occupations.
Can I use it if I have never recruited internationally before?+
Yes. The platform is designed to structure a first hiring need in a clear, usable way — no legal expertise required.
Does the legal team step in immediately?+
No. The priority is the match itself. The LEXPAT law firm only steps in later if a single permit or right-to-work issue appears.
How long does it take to fill a role through LEXPAT Connect?+
Access to profiles is immediate. The actual timeline depends on the role, the chosen candidate and — if a single permit is required — the administrative processing that follows. The LEXPAT team gives you a realistic estimate from the first consultation.
Is my role eligible for international recruitment?+
It depends on the region and the type of role. In Flanders in particular, only occupations listed on the official VDAB 2026 shortage lists are eligible for a single economic permit. Our eligibility simulator gives you an answer in under 3 minutes.
What happens if the selected candidate does not work out?+
You are never committed simply by browsing or contacting a profile. If a recruitment does not proceed, you are free to search again. The law firm only becomes involved if a formal legal process has already begun.
