Belgium Number Porting

Portable Number Types

Required Documents

Local Numbers

• ☐ LOA (Letter of Authorization) — Must include a local address; the area code of the number must match the address on file
• ☐ VAT / TAX ID — Business tax identification document
• ☐ Latest Invoice — Most recent invoice from the current provider
• ☐ Proof of Local Address — Document confirming the local address matching the number's area code

National / Toll-Free Numbers

• ☐ LOA (Letter of Authorization) — Must include a national address
• ☐ VAT / TAX ID — Business tax identification document
• ☐ Latest Invoice — Most recent invoice from the current provider
• ☐ Proof of Local Address — Document confirming a Belgian address

Restrictions & Special Conditions

• Area code / address alignment: Local numbers have a strict requirement — the geographic area code of the number must correspond to the registered address. This is a Belgian regulatory requirement.
• National and toll-free numbers require a national-level address rather than a specific area-code-matched address

Notes

• Belgium enforces geographic numbering rules, meaning local numbers are tied to specific regions — ensure your registered address matches before initiating a port
• No specific porting timeline is published for this country; plan for variability depending on your current carrier
• The distinction between local and national/toll-free documentation is primarily around address specificity (area-code-matched vs. national)
