This is a list of verified Belgian supercentenarians (people from Belgium who have attained the age of at least 110 years). There have been 15 verified supercentenarians from Belgium.[1] As of 3 December, there are 3 verified living supercentenarians in Belgium, the oldest of whom is Adrienne Ledent age 124 years, 356 days. The oldest person ever from Belgium was Joanna Deroover, who died in 2002 aged 112 years 186 days.

Living Belgian supercentenarians

Below is a list of the oldest living people from Belgium. Those listed as 'verified' have been validated by an international body that specifically deals in longevity research, such as the Gerontology Research Group. Those listed as 'pending' have provided at least one document supporting the claimed age but not the three necessary for validation. Those that are 'unverified' have provided no documents to support the age claimed.
