Prosecutors said in a statement that the pair are "suspected to have provided Khalid El Bakraoui with the false documents afterwards used in preparation of the Paris attacks."
Bakraoui blew himself up at a Brussels metro station in March of last year.
In a linked attack, his brother Ibrahim and another suicide bomber attacked the Brussels airport. Thirty-two people were killed.
It is believed that Bakraoui rented a safe house in the Belgian city of Charleroi that was used in preparation for the November 2015 attacks in the French capital.
He also rented an apartment under a false name in Brussels' Forest borough where police looking for Paris suspect Salah Abdeslam killed another suspected militant.
