If it's for a job/contract/work u'll need a work permit not a business visa. If it is business visits/meetings you can only enter a maximum of 90 days in any 180.

Thanks for your reply!.

Basically I am aware of this rule that i cannot spend more than 90 days in 6 months period.

I need to visit my company belgium office to support business...in next year or so...I am only going to stay 2 or 3 days at once.

Just needed a confirmation that Can I apply for a schegen business visa which is valid for an year ?

Look forward to your reply.

A

Of course you can apply! The question is if you will get one.

Have you had Schengen business visa to Belgium before? If so that may help you. In any case you will need strong evidence for the necessity of your activities in Belgium. Have you spoken to the embassy already?

Yes i applied for schengen b usiness visa but instead of business visa I get single entry visa and they said if you apply again we will give you multiple entry business visa.
I went to brussels and came back to London.

I am now planning to put second application for 12 months business visa..fingers crossed
