Notes

NISS

National Identification Number (NISS): This is a unique number assigned to every Belgian citizen at birth or upon immigration. It consists of 11 digits, with the first six digits representing the person's date of birth, followed by a three-digit code indicating the municipality of birth, and ending with a two-digit control number. The NISS is used for a wide range of purposes, including social security, health care, and taxes.

NISS BIS

The BIS number is a unique identification number assigned to individuals who are not registered in the national registry, but still maintain close and stable relationships with Belgium in various sectors such as social security, healthcare, and others.

NISS TER

Temporary Identification Number (TER): This is a unique number generated on demand for the purpose of Covid-19 testing. It is not linked to any personal information or records and can only be used for the specific Covid-19 test it was generated for. The TER is not intended to replace the NISS or BIS and cannot be used for any other purposes outside of Covid-19 testing.

Unoffical NISS type

The unofficial NISS number type (const NISS::TYPE_UNOFFICIAL) is a fictitious identifier created solely for the purpose of distinguishing the generated numbers from one another. It has no official value and is not recognized by any government agency. The use of this number does not in any way affect the validity or accuracy of the generated NISS numbers.

Limitations

Accuracy of DOB calculation

Please note that in extremely rare cases, the calculation of the date of birth based on the Belgian National Identification Number (NISS) may not be accurate. This is due to a legal provision that states that if all possible sequence numbers have been used, the sixth digit representing the date of birth (in yymmdd format) is increased by one and the numbering in the sequence restarts from the beginning during a new registration. Therefore, it is important to verify the accuracy of the date of birth obtained from the NISS in case of doubts or inconsistencies.
