The Belgian Mathematical Society (abbreviated as BMS), founded in 1921 by Théophile de Donder at the Université libre de Bruxelles,[1] is the national mathematical society of Belgium and a member society of the European Mathematical Society. Its mission is to assemble all Belgian mathematicians and defend their interests. Foreign members are also welcome.[2]

The society publishes the journal Bulletin of the Belgian Mathematical Society - Simon Stevin and distributes a newsletter to members, both at a rate of five issues per year.
