Ex officio taxation: No “surprise” income without prior notice of adjustment
In its judgment of 8 May 2026, the Court of Cassation reaffirmed an important limitation on the tax authorities’ power to impose an assessment ex officio: where a taxpayer is assessed ex officio for failing to respond to a notice of adjustment, the assessment may only be based on income already identified in that notice. The tax authorities cannot introduce additional income that the taxpayer has never had an opportunity to challenge.

Expatriate Status: Recent Amendments and Clarifications under Circular No. 2026/C/51 of 1 April 2026
By way of reminder, among OECD countries, Belgium has the highest tax burden on labour. However, in order to attract qualified foreign talent, a favourable tax regime for expatriates had long been in force in Belgium. This regime aims to mitigate the significant tax and parafiscal burden borne by expatriates. In 2022, a new regime was introduced. Although initially less attractive than its predecessor, this has since been largely remedied following a subsequent legislative amendment and an administrative circular.
