Offices that issue the Belgian identity card

Apply where you live and collect the card in the same place

Applications go to the municipality where you are registered, so the office depends on your address. Towns take bookings online, by phone or at the counter, and some give each family member a separate slot. When the card is ready you collect it in person, and the PIN letter arrives by post.

    Bring your current identity card or the relevant loss/theft declaration, plus a compliant photograph no older than six months that has not already been used for another identity document. Report theft to police for the required declaration; loss of a Belgian card can be reported to Population. Keep the PIN/PUK letter for collection and activation. Prices differ by age and procedure; ask for the current tariff.
