    Have your identity document, the person’s name, the event date and place, the requested certificate type and its intended use ready. Bring proof of authority if requesting for someone else. Specify whether you need an extract with current information, a full copy including the record’s history, or an international multilingual extract. Ask the receiving authority which version it accepts. If an eligible personal record is available in BAEC, Just-on-Web offers a free download using eID and PIN or itsme (Belgian digital ID app); this does not make every municipal request free.
