Pre-registrate your biometric data

If you don’t need a passport soon but you want to get your identity picture, fingerprints and signature already registered? This pre-registration can be done for free and will stay valid for 1 year. Send the special form (Dutch - French) to the Consulate General in Montreal and wait for the appointment confirmation.  

Form (Dutch - French) to apply for a passport with pre-registered biometric data. 

After confirmation of the Consulate General in Montreal you can also opt for an appointment with:  

• The 'Flying Consul' 
• Another diplomatic or consular posting (click here for contact details of all Belgian postings abroad) 

Whoever will service you will give you a confirmation form of the pre-registration of your biometric data which will be kept for a limited period of 1 year. This means you will have to send your complete passport application to the Consulate General in Montreal within that period. Don’t forget to join the confirmation form.
