Belgium is a great place to do family history research because of the country's large number of archives, libraries and other repositories. A variety of records can also be found locally at registry offices, courthouses, public libraries, historical societies and elsewhere. Websites like Ancestry.com, Findmypast, MyHeritage, and FamilySearch also provide access to many unique online databases relating to Belgian genealogy.
