Vehicle registration plates of Belgium

Number plates in Belgium are driver specific, meaning that they are transferred to a new vehicle from the owner's previous one.

The rear licence plate is state-supplied, while the front plate is owner-supplied. This has its influence on the look of the front plate, which can be identical to the rear one or similar to a European licence plates with a blue EU flag in it. Because of that, scratched, dirty, or old license plates may be sometimes affixed on the new cars in Belgium. The rear plate is usually mounted on a base plate which displays the letter "B" and usually an advertisement for the car dealer.^{[citation needed]}
