A Letter of Recommendation for a Friend is a widely-used document in Belgian professional and personal contexts, serving as a formal endorsement of an individual's character and capabilities. This document type is particularly valuable when someone is seeking employment, housing, academic admission, or other opportunities where character references are required. In Belgium, such letters must comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and local privacy laws, especially regarding the handling of personal information. The document typically includes the writer's relationship with the recommended person, specific examples of their qualities, and a professional assessment of their character, while maintaining a balance between personal knowledge and objective evaluation. The effectiveness of these letters often relies on the credibility of the recommender and the specificity of the examples provided.
