Belgian passport and E-ID

IAI systems have been used to secure Belgian passports since 2000. In 2014 the Belgian government re-issued its passports. The Federal Public Service Foreign Affairs has awarded the new contract to Zetes NV.

The complete personalisation of these Belgian passports is done on two BookMaster One systems from IAI.

After a successful delivery of IAI’s personalisation systems on the Belgian Passport, we are honored to be the supplier of the equipment used in personalising the Belgian e-ID card. Three CardMaster® One systems have been installed at Zetes’s personalisation sites where the national identity documents are being produced. The Ministry of internal affairs launched the new generation of the Belgian eID cards in January 2020.
