You need an ETA for Jersey if you have a Belgian passport.
Electronic travel authorization
Travelers visiting Jersey for under six months will require an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA). An ETA is not a visa. Travelers can submit an ETA application online. Once the application is approved, travelers will receive their ETA confirmation electronically. Travelers visiting Jersey for more than six months, for example to live, work or study in Jersey, should check the source for more details. For travelers who are existing visa holders who live in Jersey and use a physical immigration document to prove their rights, Jersey is moving from physical immigration documents to eVisas. Travelers with existing visas should take action now to create a Jersey Visas and Immigration account to access their eVisa. An eTA is electronically linked to a passport and valid for up to 2 years for multiple entries. If travelers receive a new passport, they must apply for a new eTA. Different requirements may apply to visitors traveling directly to Jersey who do not first pass through the immigration control in the United Kingdom.
