THE 3 BELGIAN ID CARDS
The ID cards are classed as electronic since they have an electronic microprocessor.

​The Belgian ID card contains two certificates: one for authentication and one for electronic signature. Some information is listed both on the card and on the chip, while other information is only on the micro-controller (such as the address). The ID1 card (credit card format) shows the holder’s portrait, name and surname, date, and place of birth, gender, nationality, Belgian ID card number,
validity, signature, and the National Register number (unique identification number given at birth), and place of issuance. It is to be carried (compulsory) ​from the age of 15 with a price of 25 Euros on average. The new Belgian ID card includes 2 fingerprints stored in the chip.
​The residency card is a card without a chip for the part needed for travelling abroad, and with a chip (on the back) to offer residents the same access rights to online services as Belgian citizens. The card is dedicated to all foreigners (non-EU or Swiss) residing in Belgium.
The Kids-eID allows children under 12 to be identified rapidly, either within or outside Belgian borders. It is, therefore, a secure identity and travel document. Other uses can be developed, for example, to register or for identification at school, swimming pools, libraries, etc. Emergency service is also linked to the card. An alert can be sent out if the child has a problem or is in danger. If they so wish, parents can link this central number to a list of telephone numbers that can be reached in case of an emergency. The cost is around 10 Euros depending on the area. This secure document is not compulsory and will not include fingerprints. The card design stays unchanged.More on identity cards for kids here: Kids-ID​.​
A KEYSTONE OF THE BELGIAN EGOVERNMENT
The government issued ID has become a pillar of the Belgian eGovernment initiative.

The country’s eGov strategy aims to create a single virtual Public Administration while respecting the privacy of users, as well as the specificities and competences of all Government bodies and administrative layers. Its main objective is to improve the delivery of public services for citizens and businesses by rendering more convenient and more open.

The national eID card has become a familiar tool for interaction between citizens and the authorities, to secure online transactions and facilitate e-business.
So what’s the story here?

800 EGOV APPLICATIONS ON LINE
Over 800 public applications are available. As of August 2016, 72​,4% of users are using on-line authentication with the national eID, 17,9% using a paper token (based on the principle of one-time password), and 9% with another method.​

In 2016, more than 30 million secure transactions have been done by 3,6 million users with their smart personal identity card according to FEDICT​, part of the Federal Service Policy and Support.

In 2016, monthly authentication requests ranged from 1.6 with a peak of 4,2 million in ​June 2016.

Why is it important?
Belgium is starting to reap the digital dividends of such a national eID scheme.

For example, in 2015, 67% of all new companies created in the Kingdom were done on-line – source Fedict 2015 annual report.

Belgian citizens can also use their eID cards to report crimes directly over the Internet, to the federal police. Following successful feasibility studies, crimes such as vandalism, shoplifting, and bicycle thefts can be reported in just a few clicks.

The citizen reporting the crime is identified by his/her secure eID card. The process saves significant time compared to the traditional lengthy process of reporting crime at police stations, which takes an average of two hours.

The scheme is part of the Belgian government’s plan to simplify the country’s administrative processes.

PERSONAL IDENTITY ​CARDS TO ACCESS NEW SERVICES
Belgian citizens have a single, sovereign identity. They also have a single trusted digital identity why provides citizens with access to all services.

In the background, privacy protection operators are actively working to protect privacy, and control flows and the barriers between different areas. This essential pragmatism has generated spectacular savings in terms of the costs of managing and using secure eID cards.

Pragmatism and consultation with all parties involved have been the keystones for the success of this program. But probably the most remarkable aspect is that Belgium wasted no time by becoming engaged in ideological struggles on data protection.

Security is not a way to better lock up the past, but to open the door to a safer future.

It is not data that is being protected, but data flow because we know that we need to prevent the misuse of such flows from beginning to end.

In essence: modernity for citizens without ideologies.

In particular, this is founded on excellent regional cooperation, expanding the scale of achievements by investing in all local social services.

PLEASE, DON’T ASK ME TWICE!
The law, passed in Belgium in 2014, also represents an essential step forward in the move towards e-government in which the customer, whether it be ​a citizen or company, stands at the centre of affairs.

Via “authentic sources”, such as the Belgian National Register or the Banque Carrefour des Entreprises (healthcare), federal public services can find much of the data that they need.

But it still occurs more often than it should that citizens or companies are asked to submit the same information several times to different federal public services. This means having to do things twice, both for customers and government services.

The new law prohibits services from re-requesting data from citizens and companies that are already available from the federal authorities in usable electronic form. They must, to the extent it is possible to do so, search for and re-use existing data from accessible databases.

The re-use of available data:

decreases administrative costs
improves the services provided
increases the efficiency of the Federal Government.
To identify citizens in data from authentic sources, federal public services must use the National Register number. For companies, this is the company registration number.

Of course, such use is strictly limited to that necessary to accomplish their tasks. (Source Fedict)​
