The amounts (or income limits) for the calculation of the attachable or assignable portion of earnings for 2015 have been published in the Moniteur Belge.
Reminder, the creditor who is seeking to obtain payment of the amounts due to him by his debtor may apply directly to his employer. This right is exercised mainly in two ways: either in the form of an attachment, either in the form of an assignment.
The attachment or the assignment shall be applied to the worker's net earnings, i.e. after the deduction of the social security contributions, withholding tax and other deductions (if any) intended to guarantee an additional social security benefit, with the exclusion of any other amount or deduction.
Moreover, it is true that only a part of these net earnings can be assigned or attached since the legislation has established income brackets within which the amount is liable to assignment or attachment. This is called the assignable or attachable amount of the earnings. The calculation of these amounts varies according to whether it regards an occupational income or a replacement income.
Moreover, since 1 February 2007 the worker is entitled to an exemption if he has (a) dependant child(ren). This exemption shall be granted in the form of a reduction of the assignable or attachable amount.
For 2015, the amounts (or income thresholds) for the calculation of the attachable or assignable portion are determined as follows:
Net monthly earnings
Attachable or assignable portion
occupational income
(employees or self-employed persons)
replacement income
Up to € 1,069
Nothing
From € 1,069.01 to € 1,148
20 % of the amount between these 2 values, being € 15.80
From €1,148.01 to €1,267
30% of the amount between these 2 values, being €35.70
40 % of the amount between these 2 values, being €47.60
From €1,267.01 to €1,386
Over € 1,386
The full amount is assignable or attachable.
The exemption for (a) dependant child(ren) has been maintained at € 66.
These new amounts of attachable or assignable earnings must be applied to all payments made as from 1 January 2015, even though they relate to earnings deemed payable before 1 January 2015. However, as for the earnings of January 2015 which were paid before January 2015, the limits of 2014 shall be applied.
Reminder: there is no limit if the attachment or the assignment is the result of a claim for payment of maintenance allowances or a claim for payment of the wages in application of article 221 of the Civil Code (assignment of earnings). The above mentioned income brackets are therefore not applicable in this case. The full amount of the worker's earnings shall be assignable or attachable. Furthermore, in that case the attachment or assignment has absolute priority over all other attachments or assignments (if any).
