On Thursday 9 December from 12 noon the Brussels Commissioner Expat Welcome Desk is holding a webinar (in English) focusing on all you need to know at the end of a lease contract in Belgium.

The end of the lease is a crucial moment for the lessor and the lessee. It takes place at the end of the contractually agreed term or in the event of early termination at the initiative of the tenant. Early termination on the landlord's initiative is possible but subject to conditions. In all cases, there are issues of notice, the inventory of fixtures on departure, rental repairs, the return of the rental guarantee, etc etc. As with all such matters, understanding what is supposed to happen before the event can relieve some of the anxiety, ensure you are prepared, and expensive mistakes are not made.

Primarily aimed at expats working for Belgian employers, this webinar is free to access, but requires prior registration by sending an email to the following e-mail address: inscription@commissioner.brussels

The webinar itself will be given by Ms Zala Skandary and Mr. Jonas Deryckere, both attorneys at law at Athena Law Firm. The webinar will be moderated by Amélie BOVY, Senior legal adviser at the Expat Welcome Desk

Practical information concerning the link to access the meeting will be sent via e-mail one day before the webinar. Remember to check your spam box !!!
