Presentation of the police zones of the Brussels-Capital Region
Police zones
Formerly managed by the communes, the police service was restructured in January 2001. Belgium was split into 196 police zones, also known as inter-police zones or by the French acronym ZIP.
There are six police zones in the Brussels-Capital Region. Each one covers several communes and has its own police regulations:
- Police zone 5339: Brussels City and Ixelles
- Police zone Brussels-West 5340: Molenbeek-Saint-Jean, Koekelberg, Jette, Ganshoren and Berchem-Sainte-Agathe
- Police zone Midi 5341: Anderlecht, Saint-Gilles and Forest
- Police zone 5342: Uccle, Watermael-Boitsfort and Auderghem
- Police zone Montgomery 5343: Etterbeek, Woluwe-Saint-Pierre and Woluwe-Saint-Lambert
- Police zone 5344: Schaerbeek, Saint-Josse-ten-Noode and Evere
