Trustee

What to do now

  1. The deadlines to file your claim have passed, including for a late claim: that was possible until a year after the judgment.
  2. Ask the trustee whether anything will still be paid out and whether your claim was admitted.
  3. Follow the file in RegSol: the trustee's reports appear there.
  4. Ask your accountant about the VAT on the unpaid invoices: in a bankruptcy it can be recovered, subject to conditions.

The judgment is more than a year old: the deadline for a late claim (art. XX.165, Code of Economic Law) has passed too.

The financial year that closed on 31-12-2022 was due by 31-07-2023 and was filed on 30-08-2023, 30 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.
