Offices that exchange foreign driving licences in Belgium

Bring your identity or Belgian residence card and original valid foreign licence. For the European procedure, a Belgian or foreign police loss/theft certificate can be used where applicable. A non-European original not in French, Dutch or English needs a sworn translation. A recent photo on a white background is needed if you no longer resemble your identity-card photo. Check recognition, fees and the current assessment time before booking travel; authentication can take substantially longer than production of the Belgian card.

Bring your identity or residence card and the valid original foreign licence. The European route also accepts the specified police loss/theft evidence when applicable. For non-European originals outside French, Dutch or English, the City requires a sworn translation. Bring a recent white-background photo if your ID photo no longer resembles you. The City charges €38 for card ordering, €5 for European registration or €5 for non-European authentication. It estimates non-European authentication at two months and subsequent card production at five working days; these are separate periods. European registration/exchange takes five working days and requires prior registration for exchange. Confirm the timing and driving entitlement for your own case; a pending exchange does not extend it.
