How identity verification works in Belgium.
- Fraud landscape
- Three pressures shape Belgian identity fraud: synthetic-identity attacks on Brussels and Antwerp neobank clusters, sophisticated forgery of the verblijfskaart residence card on the migration corridor, and identity-swap fraud on Belgian iGaming platforms supervised by the Kansspelcommissie / Commission des jeux de hasard. Didit scores 200+ real-time fraud signals on every session — face morph, replay, injection, document tampering, device intelligence, IP geolocation.
- Compliance frameworks
- Belgian Anti-Money Laundering Act of 18 September 2017
- NBB AML Circular
- AMLD6
- MiCA
- DORA
- GDPR / Belgian Data Protection Act
- eIDAS 2.0

- Hits are scored by severity — a Chamber of Representatives member surfaces as a PEP Level 1, a regional minister as PEP Level 2, sanctions as critical.
- Turn on ongoing monitoring ($0.07 per user / year) and Didit re-checks every customer daily, firing a webhook the moment a new hit appears.

Cross-check against Belgian residential data.
Cross-checked against the authoritative civil registry.
- The Consumer check (
bel_consumer,$0.03, ~20% coverage) is the lead-generation database lookup against name + DOB. - The Residential check (
bel_residential,$0.37, >50% coverage) and Utility check (bel_utility,$0.04, >60% coverage) confirm address presence. - Together they give you a layered cross-check against Belgian credit-header, utility-billing and residential data — useful for NBB-licensed lenders, neobanks running underwriting, and AML Act enhanced due diligence on higher-risk customers.
