Article 10
§ 1. In the case described in article 105, the Council of the burgomasters and lay
judged closes the list of voters 24 days before the Election Day.
In the case mentioned in article 106, the list of voters is closed on the date of the royal decree
that fixes the date of the elections. The voters are nevertheless invited to vote on the basis of the list
which has been drafted for the regular meeting of the electoral committees if the dissolution of the
Chamber of Representatives takes place after the 24th day preceding the date of the regular meeting
of the electoral committees meaning an election has to be organized before the scheduled date.
§ 2. The voters’ list contains the name, first names, birthdate, gender, main place or
residence and the identification number from the national register or individual residents as it is
stipulated in article 2, sentence 2 of the law from 8 August 1983. The register uses a continuous
numbering and is organized by municipality or if not available, by section of a municipality either by
alphabetic order of the voters or by geographic order of the streets.
§ 3. If the elections for the Chamber of Representatives take place on the same day
as the elections to the European Parliament, the list of the Belgian voters enlisted in the population
register or a Belgian municipality for the elections to the European Parliament equally serves as the
list of voters for the election to the Chamber of Representatives.
Article 16
On the date of closure of the voters’ list, the Council of burgomasters and lay judges
informs the citizen by publishing a bulletin in the usual form, inviting them to verify until the 12th
day before the Election Day the voters’ list during the opening hours of the municipal administration
to check if they themselves or any other person is listed or listed correctly. This bulletin explains the
procedure of complaints and appeals as stipulated in articles 18 and following.

The voters register is a duty for electoral bodies ex-officio, in case of the permanent voters list which is kept by the local authorities (so it is compulsory). In case of the special voters list (abroad)it depends on the request of the voter (it is voluntary).
Section D: There is no centralized voter register in the country and municipalities are responsible for voter registration. Voter registration is passive, except for citizens residing abroad who must actively register with the MFA
Voters have no duty to register themselves.

Based on a door-to-door survey, the names of those surveyed are put in the voter register "automatically" by the surveyor. The voter does not have to apply to be on the voter register and in that sense it is automatic. The census data is analysed to check the gaps in electoral roll, particularly, in the areas of gender ratio, elector population ratio, age cohort in enrolment. The Chief Electoral Officers propose the strategy to remove the imbalances observed in the areas.

Citizens are legally obliged to respond to requests for registration information from their local electoral registration office. If they do not respond, or if they provide false information, they may receive a £1,000 fine. Not being registered may also affect their credit rating. However, citizens may register anonymously. If one is registered anonymously, instead of one’s name and address appearing on the electoral register, a code will be added to the register instead.
