We understand how it could be irritating to have to show your ID card every time you receive registered mail. However, under the postal law ( see Royal Decree of 14 March 2022 – Chapter 2 Article 9. § 1 ) our delivery and counter staff have an obligation to check your identity and to take a photo of an official document confirming your identity. That is because registered mail has legal value. We therefore need to check your proof of identity to verify your identity, so we can be certain that the mail has been handed to the right person.

A couple of tips if you have not received anything: Check if someone else (your neighbour or flatmate) has received your parcel.
