Don't miss the 30 September 2024 deadline for transfer pricing "local file" (275 LF)

Belgian companies and Belgian permanent establishments that are part of a multinational group must file a "local file" (275 LF) by 30 September 2024 under certain conditions.
This transfer pricing documentation requirement applies when such group entities exceed one of the following thresholds in the year preceding the year to be reported:
  • A total of €50 million in operating and financial income excluding non-recurring income
  • A balance sheet total of €1 billion
  • An annual average workforce of at least 100 full-time equivalents
These thresholds are to be based on the statutory annual accounts of the Belgian entity. For the 2023 financial year, these are the statutory annual accounts for the 2022 financial year.

The filing deadline is 30 September 2024 for entities that also have to file their corporate income tax return at that time. Don't miss this deadline, that way you avoid administrative penalties.
