There is more than one way to approach this. Begin by reading these three threads to understand Global Transfers and the International Dollar/Euro cards:

Questions to consider:

1. Do you really need a "Belgian" card, or only need a card billed in Euros?

2. Do you really need a "USA" card, or only a card billed in Dollars?

3. Do you have an address or telephone number in the USA?
