Reclaim of excise duty in Belgium
The Belgian authorities make a reimbursement available for the excise duty charged on diesel fuel that was refuelled in Belgium. The reimbursement of the special excise duty for diesel fuel in Belgium is relatively high and therefore interesting. The reclaim is open for transporters of goods by road and for public passenger transport.
Excise duty reclaim is possible after a permit has been issued for this. We request this free of charge for our customers. After the application has been sent, it takes a couple months before you receive the permit by mail. The Belgian excise duties can be reclaimed on refuelling made as from the date of the permit. The current excise duties for Belgium are:
