Associations in Heist-op-den-Berg can now register and manage their data through the Association Desk. This digital platform from the Flemish government centralizes administration and prepares associations for future applications.
Unregistered associations are encouraged to register via verenigingsloket.be. Existing registrations should be checked and updated as needed. Duplicate registrations must be removed.
Upon registration, each association will receive a unique V-number, essential for communication with the government and for applying for local recognition.
The benefits of correct registration include easier recognition, the ability to apply for municipal subsidies, discounts on Druk en Uitleen rates, and the inclusion of activities in municipal communication channels.
Timely registration ensures associations are ready for the digital recognition and subsidy applications starting from 2027.
More information is available at www.heist-op-den-berg.be/verenigingsloket or by contacting the municipality's association support officer.
