Biometric missions

Planned biometric missions

Thanks to mobile equipment, we can record your biometric data during the visit of the Embassy staff in the other countries of the jurisdiction.

Belgians can use this opportunity to:

• Provide their biometric data, even if they don't need a passport or e-ID immediately: pre-registration of biometric data
• Introduce a request for a new passport
• Introduce a request for a new e-ID
• Activate their e-ID
   

The final data will be confirmed by e-mail to all registered Belgians in the Country.

Activation of (kids)-e-ID

The e-ID and the PUK code are required for activation. You can apply them on this website

The identity card and the certificates can only be activated in the presence of the person concerned. This means that an e-ID of a minor between the ages of 12 and 18 can only be activated in the presence of that minor.

The kids e-ID can be activated by the parents (or the legal representative) without the presence of the child.

With an activated e-ID and a card reader, you can log in to various Belgian government websites.
