Belgium announced several amendments to the Belgian VAT Code, which were introduced by the Law of 12 March 2024. The amendments were initially set to take effect on 1 January 2024, but have been postponed to 1 January 2025.

The changes in the VAT code were aimed at modernising the  handling of periodic VAT declarations and payments to enhance efficiency for both taxpayers and the tax authorities.

Belgium’s Federal Public Service Finance announced that for the fourth quarter of 2024, quarterly VAT declarations and VAT payments are due by 25 January 2025.
