Is NMBS / SNCB down right now?
Start with the NMBS / SNCB status here when the app spins at the welcome screen or belgiantrain.be stays blank. Fresh NMBS / SNCB down reports from other travellers show fast if the fault is wide. A planner that fails for everyone points to trouble on their side.
Ticket sales, trip planning and season tickets all run through these two doors. One fault strands buyers at checkout and planners at an empty results screen at the same time.
Is NMBS / SNCB down for me or everyone?
Plan the same trip on belgiantrain.be while the app still fails. A working site with a dead app puts the fault in the app on your phone. If the site planner fails in the same way, the problem sits with the railway itself.
How the SNCB app plans a trip and sells the ticket
The app plans a trip from station to station with live departure times. You buy the ticket in the same flow, and it lands with your other tickets. Platform numbers ride along with each train on the results screen.
Fast typing in the departure field can crash the buy screen to grey for many users. During an NMBS / SNCB outage the planner answers with empty lists instead. An empty list then means a site fault, not your typing.
What a My SNCB account holds on belgiantrain.be
A My SNCB account stores your season tickets and links them to your MOBIB card. One card can hold up to eight season tickets. The season ticket appears on its own when your account details match the card file; a mismatch hides it.
Where bought tickets land inside the app
Tickets you buy sit in the tickets part of the app, ready to show on the train. Website tickets arrive as PDF files with a QR code, and a return trip can come as two files.
Why platform news in the app can clash with station boards
During works or a disruption the app can show a platform that the station board has already changed. The board at the station wins when the two fight. Refresh the trip right before your train comes in to catch late platform swaps.
Common NMBS / SNCB Problems and Fixes
App and account trouble follows clear patterns on this railway. Try the fixes below in order and plan the same trip again after each one.
Buy screen crashes to grey
Type the station name slowly and pick it from the list that appears. Fast typing in the departure field crashes the buy flow for many users. Picking from the list skips the crash point.
Account creation fails in the app
Build the account on belgiantrain.be in a browser instead, then sign in inside the app. The app sign-up hits a technical error for some users. A browser-built account signs in without that wall.
Season ticket missing from your account
Compare the name and birth details on the account with the MOBIB card file. A season ticket links on its own only when both files match. One wrong letter keeps the ticket hidden.
Bought ticket not in the app
Open the tickets part and pull the screen down to refresh. Tickets bought on the site land as PDF files, not app tickets. Keep the PDF on your phone as your proof on the train.
App platform differs from the board
Trust the station board when the two disagree during a disruption. Refresh the trip in the app right before departure for late swaps. The board reads the live signal state first.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find my bought ticket in the SNCB app?
Open the tickets part of the app after you buy. Your tickets wait there with their QR codes. A pull down on the screen refreshes the list after a fresh buy.
Where does my season ticket live in My SNCB?
The account holds your season tickets and links them to your MOBIB card. One card takes up to eight season tickets. The ticket appears when your account details match the card file.
What does the SNCB International app do apart?
It sells cross-border trips in its own app and site, apart from the home app. Tickets there need their codes typed into the my tickets part by hand.
Can I validate a Brupass with the SNCB MoBIB app?
Yes, the MoBIB app reads Brupass tickets straight from your card. Hold the card against the phone until the read hits full and the confirmation pops up. A failed read sends you to a station machine instead.
Why does the SNCB app show a technical error at sign-in?
The sign-in hits this error when the app and the account service fall out of step. Sign in on the site to test the account itself. An update of the app clears most of these errors.
Does belgiantrain.be send tickets as PDF files?
Yes, site buys arrive as PDF files with a QR code. A return trip can come as two separate files. Save both files on your phone before you travel.
