Form Submission Unavailable Until 8 May 2026 Due to New Portal
Summary
The Belgian Data Protection Authority (APD) announces that electronic form submissions for information requests, mediation, or complaints are temporarily unavailable from 23 April 2026 until 8 May 2026 due to technical works for a new citizen portal. Old paper-based and electronic forms will be retired and replaced by dynamic digital forms in the new portal. The new citizen portal will become operational on 8 May 2026, at which point all users must submit requests through the updated system.
“Les anciens formulaires seront dans ce nouveau portail citoyen transformés en formulaires numériques dynamiques.”

What changed
The Belgian Data Protection Authority (APD) is transitioning from its current electronic form system to a new dynamic digital citizen portal. During the transition period (23 April to 8 May 2026), electronic form submissions for information requests, mediation requests, and complaints will be unavailable via both the website and the general contact address.
Affected parties — primarily citizens and data subjects wishing to file complaints or information requests with the APD — should note that the old forms will no longer be usable after the transition. Submissions must be made through the new portal from 8 May 2026 onward. No compliance obligations or deadlines are imposed; this is an administrative notice regarding a temporary service interruption.

Soumission d’une demande d’information, médiation ou plainte indisponible jusqu’au 8 mai
En raison de travaux techniques liés à la mise en place d'un nouveau portail pour le citoyen, il n'est temporairement pas possible d'introduire des formulaires de demande électroniques, ni via le site web, ni via l'adresse de contact générale.
Les anciens formulaires seront dans ce nouveau portail citoyen transformés en formulaires numériques dynamiques. Les anciens formulaires ne pourront donc plus être utilisés.
À partir du vendredi 8 mai 2026, le nouveau portail citoyen sera accessible pour l'envoi de votre requête en médiation, plainte ou demande d'information. Toutes les informations utiles vous seront fournies pour vous guider.
Nous vous remercions de votre compréhension.
