What to do now

  1. Stop delivering on credit unless the trustee agrees.
  2. Gather your documents: invoices, purchase orders, contract, delivery notes and reminders.
  3. File your proof of claim in RegSol (regsol.be), yourself with eID or itsme, or through your lawyer. State principal, interest and costs separately, and any preferential right you hold.
  4. Delivered under retention of title? Reclaim your goods before the first report on the verification of claims.
  5. Ask your accountant about the VAT on the unpaid invoices: in a bankruptcy it can be recovered, subject to conditions.
  6. Follow the file in RegSol: the verification report (admitted or disputed) and the trustee's reports appear there.

These deadlines come from the publication of the judgment. Check them in RegSol before you file anything; once a deadline has passed, it is too late for that step.

File a claim in RegSol ↗ Follow Follow this bankruptcy: you are alerted when it is closed or reversed.

raises risk · 2021 accounts filed 31 days late
The financial year that closed on 31-12-2021 was due by 31-07-2022 and was filed on 31-08-2022, 31 days later. Nearly half (47%) of Belgian companies file late; of those that file 1 to 90 days late, 2.0% are now bankrupt, dissolved or in another special legal status, against 1.66% of all filers. A delay like this does not count in the score.

Green means a favourable move, even when the figure itself falls: as with debt or debt to equity.
