At Energyking, we continually strive to keep our customers informed about the latest developments in energy savings and sustainability. One recent regulation that deserves your attention is the increased investor deduction for energy-saving investments by companies in Belgium.
What does this arrangement entail?
The increased investor deduction is intended to encourage companies to invest in energy conservation. This deduction reduces the tax on profits in the year of the investment. The main goal? Lower energy costs for companies and a smaller ecological impact.
Who is eligible?
People who pay tax through personal income tax, corporate income tax, non-resident tax, self-employed professionals and non-profit organizations with corporate income tax can benefit from this scheme. Do you own a business and invest in energy conservation? If so, chances are you are entitled to the enhanced investor deduction.
How does it work?
To obtain the enhanced investor deduction, you must obtain an attestation and attach it to your tax return. This must be done within three months of the end of the taxable period in which the investments were made. The attestation can be requested from the region where the investments were made. Through this link you can easily request the form and find more information about the application itself.
What are the benefits?
The increased investor deduction offers significant financial benefits. Each year, the deduction percentage is adjusted based on the previous year's index. For 2024 (tax year 2025), there is an expected deduction of 15.5% for individuals, self-employed individuals, NPOs and corporations.
Conclusion
The increased investor deduction for energy-saving investments provides a valuable incentive for businesses to invest in sustainability. Not only is it good for the environment, but it can also provide significant financial benefits. At Energyking, we are ready to support you in taking the right steps toward an energy-efficient future.
