I want to close an establishment

What is an establishment?
Every shop, office, branch, warehouse or workspace has its own establishment address. If you want to close one of these places, report this to an accredited enterprise counter such as this online platform, icounter by Acerta.
As soon as we receive your request to close an establishment , we will commence the process to close the establishment administratively. That is, adding the closure to the Crossroads Bank for Enterprises or CBE.
Would you like to close multiple establishments? That too can be done through icounter by Acerta. Note that you have to apply and pay for each closure separately.
Moving your registered office
Moving the registered office of your company affects the articles of association. In addition, you must follow these extra steps:
- Note the new address of the registered office
- Have your change of address published in the Belgian Official Gazette
Quickly put both steps in order online via icounter by Acerta, regardless of your company form. Remember that you will need a notary if the language role changes, for example when moving from Flanders to Wallonia.
Shutting down your business
As long as you still have at least one establishment, your independent activities will continue. If you wish to stop being self-employed, You must close all your establishments and go through the procedure to discontinue your business.
