I want to open a new shop. How do I register this new point of sale?

Business is booming and you need to find extra office space? Or maybe you want to open a new shop? When you expand and open a new facility, you must notify the government. You do this by registering this new office or point of sale in the Crossroads Bank for Companies (CBC).

Opening a new branch

Your business address is where you are active with your company, for example, your shop, office, branch, warehouse or workshop. This can be the same address as your registered office, or another address. Are you opening one or more branches? Then you must register this as soon as possible in the CBC through a recognised business counter such as icounter. The rates are determined by law. You pay 90.50 euros per branch unit.

Changing your registered office

Do you have a company, and is the address of your registered office moving as well? Then a few extra administrative steps are required. This change will have an impact on the articles of association of your company. To make this official, you must have your new address published in the Belgian Official Gazette. You can arrange this through your notary, accountant or business counter.

Notify your local authority

Each municipality has its own regulations for opening a commercial shop. This may involve the obligation to offer a number of parking spaces to your customers, conditions for placing a sign or advertising board, fire safety conditions, etc. Be sure to ask what the regulations are in your municipality.

Adding a new branch in the CBC

When you open a new establishment, you must have it registered in the Crossroads Bank for Companies (CBC).

Reporting changes to VAT

If your activities, bank account number or registered office change, you must report this to the VAT authorities. We'd be happy to do that for you.

NB: A change of address is only to be reported if it concerns the registered office, a change of company name is not to be reported.
