Not For Profit Articles of Incorporation are essential when establishing a non-profit organization in Belgium. This document serves as the constitutional foundation of the organization, required under the Belgian Code of Companies and Associations. It is used when founders wish to create a formal non-profit entity that can operate independently, enter into contracts, and carry out activities in pursuit of a non-profit purpose. The document must be prepared in the official language of the region where the organization's registered office is located (Dutch, French, or German) and requires notarization before being submitted to the Enterprise Court. It contains crucial information about the organization's structure, governance, and operations, and forms the basis for all future organizational decisions and activities. Once registered, the Articles become a public document, accessible through the Belgian Official Gazette.
