Are you ready and do you have all the necessary information? Set up your business easily and quickly via our online enterprise counter.
Dreaming of becoming your own boss? It’s easier than you think! We made a list with everything you have to know to get off to a good start. With Partena Professional you are not alone: we assist you each step of the way to make your dream come true.
This is the first step in setting up your business: a strong idea, and translating it into a business plan that will convince your bank or investor, but which will also give you a clear strategic basis to make a good start. Besides a good plan and practical information, you can also rely on our enterprise counters and our specialised partners.
You don’t have an initial capital, or you do not want to compromise your personal financial situation? Is it difficult for you to get a loan from traditional banks? Whether it concerns an office, car, stock or cash resources, you can always call on Partena Professional for tailored advice. From microcredit to crowdfunding, we work together with different alternative financing bodies to find the best solution for you.
Ready to start your own business? Congratulations! However, keep in mind that a strong drive is not always enough to start a business. In order to become a self-employed person you must, in some cases, meet a few conditions or demonstrate your entrepreneurial skills. Partena Professional will tell you whether this applies to you and will explain what you have to do.
Self-employed as a secondary or main occupation? Natural or legal person? A limited partnership or a limited liability company? These decisions determine the future of your business. Partena Professional will inform you of the advantages and disadvantages of every status and every legal form and gives advice in function of your situation to allow you to make the best choice.
Some professional activities are regulated. In order to get access to a profession or get an authorisation for operations, or for all other administrative steps to be taken to start up you company, you can address our enterprise counter, online or in one of our branches. Please note that no more regulated professions exist in Flanders today.
A number of administrative tasks have to be fulfilled when starting up a company. The Partena Professional enterprise counter is there to give you advice, but they can also do a lot for you. We can register you at the CBE to get your company number.
Do you need a VAT number? Partena Professional does not only give you all the necessary information, we can also - if you wish so - activate the VAT number for you.
If you are an employee, the employer has to ensure that you are affiliated to a social security fund. But once you are your own boss, it is your own responsibility. But, no need to worry: Partena Professional will help you make the necessary arrangements and give you access to your online account. In this way you are sure to be always up-to-date and you can avoid unpleasant surprises.
When you start up your own business, there is a lot you have to think of. To make it easier for you, Partena Professional developed several services and started working together with reliable partners. This allows us to show you the ropes and give advice about the different steps. Do you need a healthcare insurance? Do you wonder about your child benefit? We have the solution for you.
Do you want the same protection as an employee being a self-employed person or company manager? You can! Partena Professional advises you about the optimisation of your social security and helps you benefit from your insurance products which the reliable partners developed especially for you. This will ensure that you are well protected and allow you to do business with peace of mind.
