In Belgium, in order to get a number plate, you are required to register your car with the DIV (vehicle registration agency. You can ask your insurance company to do this.

Which is involved in the registration process?

1. You will receive a registration request for your car from the person selling.
2. This registration request should be sent to your insurance company.
3. Your insurance company will send the request to the DIV. Depending on the car you are buying, this can be done online, by post or over the counter.
4. You will receive your number plates no later than 2 days after your request has been processed. These will either be sent to your home or the car dealer.
5. Are you getting your plates delivered at home? Then keep 30 euros in cash handy, as you cannot pay the postman with a card.
