Steps for a creditor
- Stop delivering on credit unless the trustee agrees.
- Gather your documents: invoices, purchase orders, contract, delivery notes and reminders.
- 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.
- Reclaim goods you delivered under retention of title before the first report on the verification of claims.
- Ask your accountant about the VAT on the unpaid invoices. In a bankruptcy it can be recovered, subject to conditions.
- 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.
If this company owes you money, you are not paid automatically. You file your claim yourself, within the deadline the judgment sets.
Follow
Follow this bankruptcy and you are notified the next morning if it is closed or reversed.
This is general information, not legal advice. If in doubt, the trustee, your lawyer or your accountant can help.
