Accessibility of files on this portal in .doc format
This format is used in some fields involving private businesses or public sector agents.
These are primarily official forms (relating to permits to shoot film footage in public spaces in the Brussels-Capital Region) or forms to order publications, which can be filled out using compatible word processing software and sent to the relevant administration by email.
These documents are also available as a standard PDF file, which can be opened and printed. Files that have been completed and signed can be sent to the postal address of the relevant administration or the fax number given on the HTML page in question.
The .doc format is also used for bilingual circulars (French and Dutch) relating to the mobility policy, enabling regional agents to apply for a transfer to another regional institution.
The relevant contact details are available to regional agents on this portal.
