I have friends in Belgium who speak Flemish. When they speak with Dutch friends from Holland they find the two languages are similar but not identical. So in my humble opinion this answer is incorrect!

If Flemish is an official language, they must be spoken nationwide (entirety of Belgium). However, Flemish is usually spoken in Northern Belgium and not in places like Western Belgium, Eastern Belgium and Southern Belgium

According to Google Flemish is defined in the Oxford Dictionary as the “Dutch language spoken in Northern Belgium”. So, the terms 'Flemish' and 'Belgian Dutch' actually refer to the same language. The most obvious difference when talking with or listening to speakers of Dutch and Flemish is the pronunciation. Even to the untrained ear, the two dialects sound very different. While Flemish tends towards French pronunciations, Dutch in the Netherlands has more of an English feel.
