License Plate

First identify the plate: a car’s front reproduction or the official rear plate. Ordering a copy and obtaining an official plate are different processes.

In short

For a Belgian car, the front plate reproduces the assigned number; the official rear plate is handled through the DIV. A commercial order does not replace reporting a lost or stolen official plate.

Which plate needs replacing?

Your car’s front plate is damaged or missing

The reproduction uses the existing number. FPS Mobility explains the front reproduction after registration (French). The illustration shows a blank plate in a workshop, not an official plate issued by the DIV.

The official rear plate is lost or stolen

An online reproduction cannot replace it. Contact the police and follow the FPS Mobility instructions for a missing official plate (French) before ordering.

You need a motorcycle, temporary or personalised plate

Specify the vehicle category and whether a number has already been assigned. A format listed in a catalogue does not establish that it meets your administrative need. Confirm this before payment.

Prepare a front plate reproduction order

Compare the number with your registration certificate, measure the holder and check the fixings. The partner confirms the product, total price and delivery before payment. Do not post your certificate or registration number in a public comment.

Order the appropriate reproduction

1

Check what you need

For a car’s front reproduction, prepare the existing number and format. For an official plate, consult the DIV first.

2

Check the order summary

Review every character, the format, accessories, total cost and the partner’s stated delivery time.

3

Track your order

Keep the partner’s confirmation. Contact that partner directly about production, delivery or the order itself.

Frequently asked questions

Can a copy replace the official rear plate?

No. The front reproduction and official rear plate have different roles. Follow the DIV process for an official plate.

What should I prepare for a damaged front plate?

Check the assigned number on the certificate, the holder size and the fixings. Have the partner confirm the right product before payment.

What if the official plate is missing?

Contact the police about the loss or theft and follow the official process. Do not order a simple reproduction as a replacement for the official plate.

Can I choose a new number in the order?

A reproduction uses a number already assigned. Obtaining a number, including a personalised one, is a separate DIV process.

Who confirms the price and delivery?

The partner receiving the order. Check its summary, charges and timing before payment; Janssens does not set those conditions.
