How we evaluate
The checker compares each modeled requirement against product evidence. Three rules are encoded from the Immigration Office page: insurance is mandatory, it must cover all risks in Belgium, and it must be comprehensive. A product is only credited with Belgium coverage and comprehensiveness when its own documentation states them; the engine does not assume a worldwide or home-country policy is valid there. Products silent about Belgium all-risk coverage stay UNKNOWN rather than GREEN, following the UNKNOWN > Wrong principle.
An important nuance, disclosed rather than over-modeled: the source names a certificate of registration with a Belgian healthcare fund as the example proof. Confirm with the Immigration Office which proof is accepted for your specific category; the engine does not assume any tracked product is registered with a Belgian fund. See /methodology/ for the full logic.
