How the Excise Tax Refund Works
If your travels take you to Belgium or France, we can also help you recover excise taxes on fuel purchases.
If you’re interested in finding out the refund amounts for Belgium or France, please contact us.
BELGIUM – If you do not hold a license issued by the Belgian authorities, we can help you obtain one, as well as prepare the excise tax refund application for Belgium.
If you already hold a license, all you need to do is send us a copy of it.
FRANCE – Only a few documents are required to process refund claims (e.g., registration certificates for vehicles refueling in France, leasing or rental contracts if the vehicles are subject to such agreements).
This way, we offer you a personalized service, tailored specifically to the needs and structure of your business.
