Summary

Conclusion

the dossier summarised in one paragraph

The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability of MAINFREIGHT FORWARDING BELGIUM is 0.9% (low). The company has been active since 1962 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. No processed annual-account figures are available; this conclusion rests on registry and State Gazette data only.

Based on State Gazette and CBE data.

Filing behaviour

From the deposit records, complete market-wide
Latest accounts filed on time
The financial year that closed on 31-03-2025 was due by 31-10-2025 and was filed on 22-09-2025, 39 days ahead of the deadline. This speaks to administrative punctuality and says nothing about the financial position.
The next deadline is still running
The next financial year closes on 31-03-2026 and is due by 31-10-2026. Nothing is late today.
How we compute the deadline
The year end is derived from 5 filed financial years, each closing on 31-03. The statutory deadline is seven months after the close of the financial year (art. 3:10 par. 1 CAC, art. 3:47 par. 7 for ASBL and foundations). Applied to the financial year that closed on 31-03-2025, that is 31-10-2025.

Trust signals

2 signals
Long-established
Founded in 1962, 64 years in business.
No legal incidents
No bankruptcy, reorganisation or interim measure in the Belgisch Staatsblad, and the KBO register records a normal legal situation.

Administrative Flags

No strikeouts found in the KBO publications we processed. That series starts in 2021 and has gaps, so this is not a confirmation that there is nothing.
