Any good Belgian tax advisor for Belgium resident?

[johnsteed]

Thanks for the replies - Any idea on the net income, after all deductions (taxes, social security, accountant fee....) that I could expect if the accountant does proper (and legal!) recommendations?
Let's assume a gross income between 100 000 and 200 000 euros/year.
Will it be closer to 50% of the gross or 70% or ... ?

Hi
Do you know any good Belgian tax advisor?

I am currently contracting in Belgium, for several years, and resident in Belgium
Current set up = independant + management company

I am exploring any other long term solution (set up a Belgium company...etc) without using a management company
I want to discuss with a someone who really knows the Belgium system/laws

thanks

Best just take an accountant far away from the usual contract routes, just take the yellow pages, or business pages get someone who also does the locall florist, hairdresser etc, therefore you will properly embedded in the system and not suspect to the usual ex-pat radar

Accountant

I could recommend you one (expert-comptable) based in Liege. However, his english is limited. I don't know about your french.

There's one in Brussels whose name goes around quite a lot (recommended by several recruitment agencies) but I would not advise you to choose him. He has already too many contractors among its clients. I see there a risk, in case he gets audited (see what happened with that german accountant).
