Good afternoon
I would like to file my vAT declaration, but I get a notification saying that I don’t need to do anything.
I suspect that the government needs to know something about income and such, also to calculate social security contributions.
Thanks in advance for your help.
What is your vAT type?
Social security contributions have nothing to do with vAT.

Have you activated your vAT? If so, did you do this using form 604A or via your social secretariat?
I am exempted from vAT. But does the vAT authority need any information to verify that I remain below €25,000? Or do I put that on my tax return?You do not have to submit periodic vAT declarations, but the tax authorities do monitor you in two ways:
Yearly customer list: Even as an exempted entrepreneur, you must submit a list of your Belgian customers with a vAT number to whom you have invoiced more than €250 before March 31. If you do not have any such customers (e.g., only private persons), a "nil listing" will suffice.
Income tax (personal income tax): You must state your total turnover in your yearly tax return. The vAT administration and the direct taxes authorities exchange data to check whether you have exceeded the threshold of €25,000.
Important: As soon as you exceed the €25,000 threshold, you must immediately report this to your vAT office yourself in order to switch to the normal vAT scheme. If you wait until you file your return, you risk fines and will still have to pay vAT on the invoices you wrongfully sent without vAT.
Thank you very much.
You really should try it out for yourself. Even if you don’t have a company number yet, you can already go ahead.
