Belgium is divided into ten provinces, which serve as the main administrative divisions outside of the Brussels Capital Region. The provinces are grouped into the Flemish and Walloon regions, each reflecting cultural and linguistic distinctions in the country. Belgian provinces have defined boundaries that have been stable since the mid-1990s, following the administrative reforms that separated the Brussels Capital Region.

Belgium has 10 provinces. Five belong to the Flemish Region (Antwerp, East Flanders, Flemish Brabant, Limburg, and West Flanders) and five to the Walloon Region (Hainaut, Liège, Luxembourg, Namur, and Walloon Brabant). The Brussels-Capital Region is a separate entity that performs provincial functions for its 19 municipalities but is not itself a province.
Luxembourg is the largest province by area at 4,459.01 km² (1,721.72 sq mi). Despite its size, it is also the least populated province, giving it a very low population density compared with the national average. It borders the country of Luxembourg to the south and France to the southwest.
Walloon Brabant is the smallest province at 1,091.29 km² (421.38 sq mi). Its capital is Wavre, and it is located just south of the Brussels-Capital Region. The province is also home to the Waterloo battlefield, site of the famous 1815 Napoleonic battle.
Antwerp is the most populous province with 1,920,024 inhabitants as of 1 January 2024. Its capital, the city of Antwerp, is Belgium's largest port and one of Europe's leading seaports, situated on the Scheldt River. Other notable cities in the province include Mechelen and Turnhout.
Bruges, the capital of West Flanders, is a UNESCO-listed medieval city known for its canals. Leuven in Flemish Brabant is home to KU Leuven, one of Europe's oldest universities. The Spa-Francorchamps Formula 1 circuit is located in the province of Liège, and the World War I battlefields and memorials at Ypres (Ieper) are in West Flanders.
Belgium shares borders with four countries: France to the southwest, the Netherlands to the north, Germany to the east, and Luxembourg to the southeast. The North Sea forms its northwestern coastline, with coastal towns such as Ostend and Knokke-Heist in the province of West Flanders.
