This address is used for all official correspondence with public authorities and constitutes the legal place of business of your company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The registered office shall be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>registered with the Cross-Sectoral Business Register (KBO)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>published in the Belgian Official Gazette<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>used for official communication with public authorities and courts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>stated in various official documents of the company<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every Belgian company, such as a BV, is legally required to have a registered office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The registered office determines, amongst other things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>the company\u2019s registered office<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>where official documents and notifications are received<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>which court has jurisdiction in the event of any disputes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the official address under which your business is registered<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is important to note that the registered office does not necessarily have to be at the same location as where you work on a day-to-day basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More and more business owners are choosing to register their registered office at an external address in order to protect their privacy and project a more professional image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why rent a registered office?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A <strong>renting a registered office<\/strong> is now a popular solution for the self-employed, consultants, freelancers and companies that do not need their own office or do not wish to disclose their home address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By renting a professional registered office:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>protects your privacy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>do you comply with Belgian legislation?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do you have a professional business address?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>this prevents your home address from appearing in public registers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>gives your business a more professional image<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Renting a registered office is therefore not just an administrative decision, but also a strategic investment in your company\u2019s image and organisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why choose an external registered office?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many business owners still use their home address as their registered office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This entails a number of disadvantages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>loss of privacy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your home address will be visible in public databases<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>less professional appearance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>possible practical and administrative drawbacks associated with a move<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An offshore registered office, on the other hand, offers numerous advantages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Home address<\/th><th>BE
