Toggle the content
The Belgian Foreign Trade Agency (BFTA) operates at the service of the three Regional authorities for export promotion: Flanders Investment & Trade (FIT), Hub.Brussels, and the Wallonia Export-Investment Agency (AWEX), as well as the Federal Public Service Foreign Affairs.
The activities of the BFTA were stipulated by the Cooperation Agreement of May 24th 2002 between the Federal Government and the three Regions. The Agency organizes two joint economic missions outside the EU every year at the request of its institutional partners. Furthermore, since 2015, the BFTA contributes on a biannual basis to the logistical organisation of the Belgian Sovereign's State Visits abroad.
The BFTA also runs an information centre which provides information on foreign markets: from studies within the framework of economic missions to national and international statistics and legal advice or information on regulations regarding foreign trade.
