The Loan Agreement Between Family is a crucial document for formalizing financial arrangements between family members under Belgian law. It's particularly relevant when family members wish to provide financial support while maintaining clear terms and legal protection. The agreement needs to comply with Belgian Civil Code provisions regarding loans (Articles 1874-1914), consider tax implications under Belgian tax law, and meet registration requirements for private contracts. This document type is commonly used for various purposes such as helping with property purchases, business investments, or personal financial needs. It should include clear terms about the loan amount, any applicable interest (considering both legal and tax implications), repayment schedule, and default provisions. The agreement must balance legal requirements with family relationships, often including specific provisions for scenarios like early repayment or death of a party. For larger amounts, registration with Belgian authorities may be required.
