• Gold Medal, for honorary members serving 10 years
• Honorary Member, to certain international referees and chairmen (typically 40 years of service)
• Emeritus Member, to certain referees and chairmen (typically 30 years of service)
• Association Medal of Honour, to certain referees and chairmen (typically 20 years of service)

• In 1992, the FIFA awarded the Belgian Football Association the FIFA Fair Play Award.

In the summer of 1986, when the national men's A-selection reached the semifinals of the World Cup in Mexico, the football team started the project Casa Hogar under impulse of RBFA delegation responsible Michel D'Hooghe. This is a home for street children in the industrial Mexican city Toluca, to which the football players donated part of their tournament bonuses. During 25 years, the RBFA stayed committed with this project and helped 500 children to meals and education.^[7]
