Offices that renew or replace driving licences in Belgium

Online first in many towns, a counter visit when needed

Some municipalities send you to the online route before offering a counter visit, and the checks differ for lost, stolen and damaged licences. Each office explains whether you must apply in person and how you collect the new licence.

    Gemeente Kontich — Burgerzaken

    Gemeenteplein 1, 2550 Kontich

    Pick up your new licence within three months, because it is cancelled and destroyed after that.

    Bring your identity card and current licence. A new photo is needed if the eID photo is no longer a good likeness. The exam-centre application form is for first issue, not ordinary renewal. For theft, first report to police; theft abroad also requires reporting to Belgian police with the foreign report. After applying online through BelDrive, collect the licence personally for the municipal identity check; you cannot send a representative instead.
