Good to Know: Belgian Real Estate Rules & Laws

Stay informed and sell with confidence.

✔ Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) – In Belgium, it is mandatory to have an EPC before selling a property. This document rates your home’s energy efficiency and must be presented to potential buyers.

✔ Pre-sale Notary Check – It is recommended to have a notary verify property documents in advance to prevent any legal or administrative delays.

✔ Capital Gains Tax – If you sell a property within 5 years of purchasing it, a 16.5% capital gains tax may apply, depending on your situation.

✔ Urban Planning Information – Buyers often request zoning certificates to understand what changes or renovations are legally allowed on the property.

✔ Co-ownership & Common Charges – If selling an apartment, you may need to provide financial records of the building’s common expenses and confirm no outstanding fees.
