One of AmCham Belgium’s most essential activities is its business lobbying initiatives – with the Belgium government and other essential business related entities. AmCham Belgium takes a strong position on a number of issues that effect business in Belgium and lobbies for resolution and change.
AmCham Belgium strives to improve the environment for business and investment in Belgium by lobbying for the interests of its members. Our guiding principle is “A successful past does not guarantee a successful future” – which is why we rely heavily on the resources and ideas developed by our numerous Committees and over 200 business men and women. Working together, we can adapt to the rapidly changing climate or doing business in Belgium.
To promote our lobbying activities – and to keep the Belgium business community informed – AmCham Belgium publishes a number of documents and reports, including:
U.S. Direct Investment
In order to get stay on top of new information and developments effecting businesses in Belgium and adjusting our lobbying plan accordingly, AmCham Belgium updates its annual U.S. Direct Investment Report in Belgium (USDI) while simultaneously carrying out either a topical or business confidence survey. The report contains detailed information of the current climate for Doing Business in Belgium and provides the necessary data to support the Foreign Investors’ Agenda.
Priorities for a Prosperous Belgium (former FIA)
Priorities for a Prosperous Belgium is AmCham Belgium’s annual report, setting up the benchmarks for that year’s lobbying efforts. The overarching goal of this proactive approach to lobbying is to better position Belgium as the most economically dynamic country in Western Europe and thus attractive to U.S. investment.
Lobby Flash
When our business lobbying efforts lead to tangible results – like the renegotiation of a Tax Treaty – AmCham Belgium sends out a Lobby Flash so all members and stakeholders stay updated on the good news.

Position Papers
One of our main objectives is to provide U.S. investors in Belgium with a platform to voice concerns and ideas for reshaping government policies. Through surveys, meetings and conferences, AmCham Belgium’s Committees and Task Forces develop and author position papers used when lobbying the Belgium government and related entities.
Media Coverage
Needless to say, AmCham Belgium’s expansive lobbying efforts result in wide-spread media coverage, both in Belgium and abroad.
