Car Sold As Is Contract Template for Belgium

The Car Sold As Is Contract is designed for use in Belgium when selling vehicles without standard warranties or guarantees, while maintaining compliance with mandatory Belgian legal requirements. This document is particularly useful for private sellers, used car dealers, and businesses selling vehicles outside standard warranty arrangements. The contract must include specific elements required by Belgian law, such as the Car-Pass document, technical inspection certificate, and mandatory disclosures about the vehicle's condition. While the "as is" nature limits certain seller obligations, the contract cannot exclude mandatory consumer protections under Belgian law. This template ensures all necessary legal requirements are met while protecting the seller's interests through clear disclaimers and buyer acknowledgments of the vehicle's condition.
