Frequently asked questions
How do I write a Belgian address correctly?
Belgian addresses follow the regional language: Flanders (Antwerp, Ghent, Brussels) uses Dutch; Wallonia (Liège, Charleroi, Mons) uses French. For Brussels, either language is accepted. Format: 4-digit postcode + municipality (e.g. "1000 Brussel" or "1000 Bruxelles").
