Over the last 2.5 days we organised a successful biometric mission in Christchurch 🇳🇿, where we took biometric data for over 100 passports and eID cards. 📊There are currently over 1,500 Belgians living in New Zealand. Many people appreciated the Embassy team coming to Aotearoa (New Zealand), saving them the trip to Canberra. 📅Next month (23 - 25 September) our team will be visiting Brisbane.

🌴 Our biometric mission in the French Pacific Islands took place last week. We do not forget our compatriots who live in this wonderful but very remote region. All the Belgians who registered were able to renew their passport or identity card without having to travel to Canberra. On May 6, our consul was in Nouméa to receive Belgians living in New Caledonia, in the company of Mr. Grégory Aulotte, honorary consul of Belgium in Noumea. Then the biometric mission set up shop in Papeete on Tahiti in French Polynesia on May 9. Last year Mr. Pierre Raynal retired as Belgian honorary consul in Polynesia. We took advantage of our visit to present him with the honorary distinction of Knight in the Order of Leopold, in recognition of his more than 20 years of service to the Belgians. 🙏 Many thanks for everything you have done for Belgium and its citizens! Ms. Valérie Krack has taken over the management of the honorary consulate in Tahiti as provisional manager, pending her official appointment within a few months. Many thanks to her for her hospitality and motivation to resume the post of honorary consul and guarantee the continuity of consular services for Belgians in French Polynesia.

In light of the ANZAC Day commemorations, H. E. Michel Goffin visited the Rocky Hill War Memorial and Mulwaree High School Remembrance Museum in Goulburn Mulwaree Council. Belgium will always be grateful for the ultimate sacrifice made by Goulburn man William Legget, who gave his life defending stad wervik in Belgium. #Lestweforget #inflandersfields
William Legget lost his life in 1914 in Belgium when he was 23 years old. He died defending the inhabitants of Geluwe, a small town in Flanders. His bravery forged an ongoing relationship between Goulburn and Geluwe and between Australia and Belgium. Many thanks to the mayor of Goulburn, Peter Walker, and Michelle Mackey, from the War Museum of Goulburn for hosting a visit from the Belgian Ambassador.
