STEPS OF COMPANY REGISTRATION IN BELGIUM
To initiate the registration of a company in Belgium, it is essential to compile a comprehensive set of personal and constituent documents and develop a business plan. Using these documents, a local notary will draft the Articles of Incorporation and register them in the relevant judicial district within 15 days. The company’s establishment requires a local legal address and a local bank account. Once the company is registered in the official records, the memorandum of association must be published in the Belgian edition of the Official Gazette. Subsequently, mandatory steps include registration in the Enterprise Database (CBE), enrolment in the Social Insurance Fund, and obtaining a VAT payer number.
Additional licensing is mandatory for trust, insurance, and banking services. Typically, the entire process of registering a company in Belgium takes approximately two weeks. For a swift and straightforward experience, it is advisable to seek the assistance of experienced specialists from COREDO.
