Our Team in Brussels

Three named specialists stand behind Company Registration Belgium, not a shared inbox: one for formation and structuring, one for tax and licensing, one for founder immigration. Every page is written by one and reviewed by another before it goes live.

Maarten De Wilde, Formation and Corporate Structuring

Maarten De Wilde leads formation and corporate structuring, twelve years on Belgian company files from the Brussels office. He drafts the file that goes to the notary for a BV/SRL or an NV/SA incorporation, among the other company types a founder can choose, files the KBO/BCE registration, and coordinates a branch office or a holding structure for a foreign parent.

He runs a company change or a share transfer through the register, takes a company through liquidation when the time comes, and handles a ready-made company transfer file the same way: due diligence, the transfer deed, the registry update. He studied law at Ghent University, then spent eight years on the company-law desk of a Brussels notarial office, and works in Dutch, English and French.

Maarten reviews the pages Aurelie Lambert and Yannick Peeters write, including the guide to the company register and corporate tax in Belgium.

Aurelie Lambert, Tax, Licensing and Compliance

Aurelie Lambert leads tax, licensing and compliance, ten years in the field, the last seven on Belgian files, from the Brussels office. She works out whether a company qualifies for the reduced 20 percent corporate-tax rate, registers a company for VAT and for e-invoicing readiness, and prepares the FSMA and NBB files behind a crypto licence or a payment-institution licence.

She also files a Benelux trade mark at BOIP, enters a company's UBO record, answers the questions a Belgian bank asks before opening a business account, and coordinates payroll compliance for an employer with staff in Belgium. She studied economics and tax at the Universite Saint-Louis - Bruxelles, then spent four years in a Big Four tax practice in Brussels, and works in French, English and Dutch.

Aurelie reviews the pages Maarten De Wilde writes, including ASBL and VZW formation and starting a business in Belgium.

Yannick Peeters, Immigration and Relocation

Yannick Peeters leads immigration and relocation, nine years from the Brussels office. He assembles professional card files for non-EU founders, prepares single permit and EU Blue Card applications, and supports the business-visa and digital-nomad-visa steps that precede a move.

He also works out how a non-EU founder registers as self-employed and affiliates with a social-insurance fund. He studied law at KU Leuven, then spent six years in a Brussels relocation and immigration practice serving non-EU founders and their families, and works in Dutch, English and French.

No page in the current review matrix carries his name as reviewer: the Maarten-Aurelie review cycle covers the site's third topic block.

How Every Page Is Checked

Every page on this site carries one author and one different reviewer from this team: the person who wrote the file did not check it alone. All three specialists work from the same Brussels office. Questions go through contact, not a personal inbox.
