The Belgian administration is an even bigger mess than France. I have a colleague that had to wait 8 month in Brussles for his residency card, which is required for a ton of stuff (ie. getting a phone number in belgium).

Also in actual Flanders, some people in the administration will only ever talk to you in Dutch, even if they understand English and French.

There is indeed too much administration and official communication with the governement is in Dutch, no disagreement there ( although i think you can change this for businesses). Administration is improving though.
