Hi all,
I am getting close to my test day and I was reviewing my passport stamps, where I came upon this question. I realize that only the last five years (eligibility period) matters so I went through all stamps within the period. I found there are a set of entry/exit stamps that I am not sure whether I should get it translated or not.
The stamps were given in the Brussels airport, which has a code of BRU. As a result, the stamps look exactly like these:

To me it is clear that it is issued in BRU airport, but I don't understand what the NAT means followed by that. Do I have to get it translated? And actually, I doubt the translator will know what it means, since it doesn't seem like of any language but more like a code or short form of something (I am guessing it means national).
I have also been to Spain and the stamps look like this, which I believe is no problem since it clearly say Madrid-Barajas airport. In the case of Brussels, it uses a short form so I am a bit unsure of.

Can you please share your thought? Thanks a lot.
