A long stay visa is required for all persons, including American citizens, who want to stay in Belgium for more than 90 days. While a long stay visa is not a Schengen visa, it does allow you to travel within the Schengen Area during your stay in Belgium.
How can I stay longer than 90 days in Belgium?
The general rule is to obtain a D visa (long-term visa) from the Embassy in your home country before you arrival in Brussels! However in some cases it is also possible to lodge your application directly in Brussels with the municipal administration in your place of residence.

Can I live in Belgium as a US citizen?
Citizens of non-EU countries who wish to stay in Belgium for more than 90 days will need to arrange a long-stay residence visa before arriving. The D visa allows non-EU nationals to study, work and live in Belgium for up to five years. After five years, they will be able to apply for permanent residency.
