Most Belgian governmental instances offer online applications that are accessible with a level 3 commercial certificate. The Isabel SmartCard holds such a certificate and can be used to login to both the Isabel 6 platform and the government applications.
All Isabel 6 users with a personal SmartCard can access these government applications, but it is perfectly possible to order an Isabel SmartCard without bank links that will be only be used for this purpose.
We also deliver the commercial certificate to non-resident persons and companies. An important requirement is to have a Belgian VAT number, as a commercial certificate is always linked to the Belgian VAT number of your company.
(*) Please note the Isabel SmartCard currently does not support government access from computers running MacOs.
