The list of ambassadors of Belgium to South Korea began after diplomatic relations were established in 1901. The official title of this diplomat is "Ambassador of the Kingdom of Belgium to the Republic of Korea".

Contents

Belgian-Korean diplomatic relations were initially established during the Joseon period of Korean history.

After the Denmark-Korea Treaty of 1902 was negotiated, ministers from Denmark could have been appointed in accordance with this treaty. However, diplomatic affairs were initially handled by the Belgian representative in Seoul. [1]
