Dears
I have a job offer from a company in Brussels, and my single-work-permit is currently in process.

Does any one knows whether the spouses is allowed to work in Belgium in my case?

Thanks
Sanjay

If it's work permit B, which will be the case most likely, then no. Spouses cannot work directly. They will need to find a job where the company is willing to sponsor their work permit.
