According to Article 10ter of the Belgian Code of Criminal Procedure, Belgian authorities can prosecute any individual, regardless of his/her nationality, who committed abroad a sexual offence against a minor provided that the offender is found on Belgian soil.
In 2015, Belgium launched a new four-year National Plan of Action to combat trafficking in human beings which includes measures to improve child victims’ identification and ensure the protection of unaccompanied children in order to reduce their vulnerability.
In March 2015, the Belgian House of Representatives adopted a resolution calling on the Government to address the issue of child marriage in its bilateral agreements.
