• The tasks of the NCCA: authorising CABs, supervising certificates issued under European certification schemes, monitoring compliance throughout the lifecycle of certified products, handling complaints, contributing to the European schemes CCB — NCCA page, What we do.
• NIS2. The CCB is the national cybersecurity authority; through its NCCA, it is responsible for conformity assessment tasks, including the authorisation of CABs. The NCCA manages the CyberFundamentals (CyFun®) framework, recognised within the Belgian NIS2 framework CCB — NCCA page, NIS2.
• eIDAS. The NCCA contributes its expertise to eIDAS-related working groups, at European and national level, including (preparatory) work on a national certification scheme for the European Digital Identity Wallet CCB — NCCA page, eIDAS2.
• The EUCC is the only operational European scheme. There is as yet no officially authorised CAB in Belgium; the NCCA is working on it, and manufacturers may apply to CABs authorised in other Member States. For the Cybersecurity Act, the page states that there are as yet no “accredited and authorised” CABs CCB — NCCA page, FAQ.
• The legal bases cited: Regulation 2019/881, the law of 20 July 2022 and the Royal Decree of 16 October 2022 for certification; the NIS2 Directive, the law of 26 April 2024 and the Royal Decree of 9 June 2024 for NIS2 CCB — NCCA page, Legal basis.

These findings are those of the page on its date of consultation. The conformity of wallets with the relevant cybersecurity requirements is certified in accordance with the European cybersecurity certification schemes referred to in the implementing acts; for the other requirements, and for the cybersecurity requirements that those schemes do not cover or cover only partially, Member States establish national certification schemes Art. 5c(2) Art. 5c(3). No source in the corpus, consulted on 31-10-2026, contains a Belgian national certification scheme for wallets Art. 5c(3).
