Document background
A Share Sale Deed is a crucial document used in Belgian corporate transactions to formalize and execute the transfer of company shares between parties. This document is essential when conducting share acquisitions or disposals in Belgium, whether for complete or partial ownership transfers of a company. The deed must comply with Belgian corporate law requirements, particularly the Belgian Companies and Associations Code, and includes detailed provisions covering the sale terms, warranties, representations, and specific Belgian legal formalities. It's typically used in both private and public company transactions, though requirements may vary depending on the company type and transaction size. The document serves as official evidence of the transfer and includes all necessary elements for registration with relevant Belgian authorities, making it a fundamental instrument in corporate restructuring, mergers and acquisitions, and investment transactions.
