Abstract	We report on the particle identification systems for the upcoming Belle II detector. The time of propagation counter in the barrel region and the proximity focusing RICH with aerogel radiator in the forward end-cap region will be installed as particle identification systems. They are expected to provide kaon identification efficiency of more than 94% at a low pion misidentification probability of 4%. The motivation for the upgrade, method and status of both systems are discussed.
