If this company owes you money, you are not paid automatically: you file your claim yourself, within the deadline the judgment sets.
The procedure
- Court
- Enterprise Court of Ghent, Ghent division
- Declared bankrupt
- 8 August 2025
- Supervising judge
- Ann De Causmaecker
- Official Gazette
- 14-08-2025 (pdf) ↗search the document for 2025/134146
Curator
- Mieke Van CuyckHofkouterstraat 5 A, 9890 Gaveremieke@vancuyck.be
What to do now
- Do not deliver on credit any more without an agreement with the curator.
- 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.
- Delivered under retention of title? Reclaim your goods 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 under conditions.
- Follow the file in RegSol: the verification report (admitted or disputed) and the curator's reports appear there.
Deadlines: the judgment sets the last day to file your claim, by law at most thirty days after the judgment, and the day of the first verification report. Both dates are in the publication in the Official Gazette and in RegSol; Checked does not read them yet. A late claim is sometimes still possible, but not without consequences.
