As of 1 March 2021, financial institutions under the National Bank of Belgium's direct supervision must submit all new fit and proper applications exclusively through the OneGate portal, rendering paper submissions invalid. Institutions under the European Central Bank's direct supervision must use the ECB's IMAS portal for new appointment forms starting 27 January 2021, while retaining the Bank's portal for other fit and proper forms. Access to these digital platforms requires electronic certificates, and the National Bank of Belgium will update its fit and proper manual to reflect these procedural changes.
