What is the UBO register?
In the fight against money laundering and the financing of terrorism (also known as Anti Money Laundering or AML legislation) it has been an obligation in Belgium since 2019 to register your company in the UBO register of the Federal Public Service Finance. The UBO register is a central database in which information about all natural persons behind companies and other legal entities (known as the 'ultimate beneficial owners') is kept.
The UBO register can be accessed via the FPS Finance website or directly on the UBO Register website. This is where you can request an extract stating the structure of your organisation and all UBOs. For more assistance, see the UBO register user manual or ask FPS Finance.
