Setting up a non-profit legal entity in Belgium

There is a variety of legal forms available for non-profit organisations, each subject to a specific legal framework. Our assistance includes advising on the most appropriate legal non-profit structure as well as setting up and implementing the most suitable structure.

We are aware of what sets non-profit organisations apart, and of the business and political constraints they might face. Our specialist lawyers make sure to offer realistic, pragmatic, and cost-effective solutions.

Corporate law and corporate governance for non-profits

Corporate governance is of utmost importance for non-profit organisations. We regularly advise clients in the non-profit sector on amending their corporate structure and optimising their corporate governance.

We provide hands-on legal advice regarding legal or tax issues that the management or members of a non-profit organisation might face. 

We also assist non-profit organisations in mergers and demergers, international transfer of seats and other corporate reorganisations.

Multidisciplinary day-to-day legal assistance for non-profits

In light of the diversity of activities of non-profit organisations and the various modes of financing, a cross-practice approach is crucial. Our multidisciplinary team provides comprehensive and bespoke guidance.
