   You do: None — agent quotes the legal basis.

   To resume: Agent uses the citation to back the Belgian-side acceptance claim if commune staff express doubt.

   Handoff: full-takeover

   Agent does: Open the SPF Justice État Civil thematic page, quote the Belgian-side acceptance rule for EU 2016/1191 multilingual forms (regulation applies directly since 16 February 2019; no apostille and no sworn translation needed for covered document types) and the citation to Reg. 2016/1191 articles 6 and 8 covering the form attachment.

   You do: If the commune front-desk staff express doubt, the customer brings the printed reference to the desk and asks for the commune's État Civil officer (officier de l'état civil). The form attachment is to be accepted as-is for the document types in Annexes I–XI; the commune may not require apostille or sworn translation.

   To resume: Customer tells the agent whether the commune accepted the document; if rejected, the agent surfaces the failure as a §11 observation candidate and offers to file a procedural complaint route as a separate skill.

   The steps after authentication / handoff are described from documentation, not yet confirmed by a real Be Civic user. If reality differs, please tell us so we can fix the entry.

   Notes: Probed 2026-05-12 via WebFetch on the related diplomatie.belgium.be legalisations page: page does NOT mention EU 2016/1191 explicitly (it discusses only general legalisation requirements). This is itself a signal — the Belgian-side documentation surfaces of the regulation are thin, which reinforces that this path is informational and the failure mode 'commune staff unaware of regulation' is real. SPF Justice État Civil page itself is the closest official Belgian-side authority surface...

   Handoff: physical-presence

   Agent does: Brief the customer on the Belgian-acceptance rule in plain language: since 16 February 2019, the Belgian commune État Civil must accept any covered public document (Annexes I–XI of Reg. 2016/1191) from another EU member state with the multilingual standard form attached — no apostille and no sworn translation. Provide the customer with the relevant Annex page from the EU e-Justice portal and a one-paragraph script citing the regulation.

   You do: Bring the document with the form to the commune; if the front-desk staff express doubt, ask politely to speak with the officier de l'état civil and present the printed citation.

   To resume: Customer tells the agent the outcome. If accepted: agent records and moves on. If refused: agent records the refusal as a §11 failure-mode observation candidate and offers procedural escalation paths.

   Notes: Offline fallback for the commune-side acceptance check. The communes.json structural reference is used as a no-op here: the predicate set is empty because acceptance applies uniformly across all 581 Belgian communes. Failure-mode signals capture the documented 'commune staff unaware of regulation' pattern, which is the main practical risk the regulation has not eliminated. Documenting this offline source explicitly satisfies the graceful-degradation requirement; offline is the...
