Exchange and Recognition of Foreign Licenses

• EU/EEA Citizens: If you’re from the EU, EEA, or a country with a reciprocal agreement with Belgium, you can exchange your foreign license for a Belgian one. You may also be able to use it for up to 6 months after arrival.
• Non-EEA Citizens: If you’re from outside the EU/EEA, you’ll need to check if Belgium has a reciprocity agreement with your home country. If not, you will have to take the Belgian theory and driving tests.

How to Apply for a Belgian Driver’s License

 

1. Practical Test: After passing the theory test, schedule your practical driving exam at an official test center.
2. Required Documents: Bring your ID, provisional driving license, proof of payment, insurance, and vehicle registration documents.
3. Provisional License: After passing both tests, you’ll receive a provisional license valid for up to 36 months.

What You Need to Know

• License Validity: Most EU licenses are valid for 10 years. After registering as a Belgian resident, you may need to renew your license every two years.
• Registration: It’s important to register your license at your local town hall.

Important Notes for Non-EEA Citizens

• Initial Use: You can use your foreign license for up to 6 months. After that, you must exchange it or pass the Belgian tests.
• International Driving Permit: You might need an IDP and a translation of your license if you’re from a non-EU country.
• Exchange Options: Many countries have reciprocal agreements with Belgium for easier license exchange, but this may require registration with a Belgian municipality.

Taking the Tests

• Theory Test: Book in advance to take the theory test in your preferred language (French, Dutch, or English).
• Driving Test: The practical exam will assess your ability to operate a vehicle safely. Prepare well, as a good performance will help you obtain your Belgian license.
