Business domiciliation in Belgium: the complete 2026 guide
Published on 28 May 2026

What is business domiciliation?
Business domiciliation means establishing your company's registered office at a professional address that is not necessarily where you carry out your activity. In practice, your company is registered with the Crossroads Bank for Enterprises (CBE) at the address of a business center or specialised office.
That address becomes your legal seat: it appears on your invoices, your articles of association, in the Belgian Official Gazette and on all your official documents.
Who is it for?
- Self-employed people who work from home but don't want to display their private address
- Startups and SMEs looking for a credible address without renting an office
- Foreign companies setting up in Belgium
- Companies wanting a prestigious address in a business district
Is it legal in Belgium?
Yes, domiciliation is perfectly legal. The only condition is that the address must be real and you must be reachable there: you must be able to receive your official mail and any inspections by the administration.
This is why you should avoid fictitious "mailboxes". A serious domiciliation center has real premises, receives your mail and can justify your presence in case of an inspection.
What does domiciliation include?
Services vary from one center to another, but you usually find:
- The registered office address usable for the CBE and VAT
- Mail reception and handling (notification, scanning, forwarding)
- Access to meeting rooms on demand
- Sometimes a phone service or reception desk
- Options for occasional offices or coworking
How much does domiciliation cost?
Rates in Belgium generally range from €30 to €150 per month depending on:
- the location (an address in central Brussels costs more than in the suburbs)
- the included services (simple mail vs. phone answering, meeting rooms)
- the reputation and standing of the center
That's far cheaper than renting an office, while still offering a credible professional address.
How to choose the right center?
Compare on several criteria: location, price, mail handling, room access, contract flexibility and customer reviews. A center close to your clientele or in a recognised business district strengthens your image.
