Export intrastat third-party declarations in the Belgian version

Note

2022 release wave 2 introduced a redesigned Intrastat experience with enhanced features. To learn more about the new Intrastat experience, go to Set Up Intrastat Reporting. This article describes the previous functionality, which you can only use if you haven't upgraded your Business Central.

The new Intrastat feature is enabled automatically in 2024 wave 2 release, and the old Intrastat feature is deprecated.

In Belgium, you must have a third-party declarant fill out the Intrastat declaration. The third-party declarant must be an external person or company.

Note

The Intrastat Journals page and its Create File action described in earlier versions of this article are no longer available. Exporting the declaration is now done from the Intrastat Report page, part of the current Intrastat experience. If you haven't filled in and validated your Intrastat report yet, see Work with Intrastat Reporting first.

Export the third-party declaration

Before you export the file, it's a good idea to run the Checklist Report action to verify the contents of the report. Learn more in Verify the Intrastat Report.

  1. Choose the Tell Me feature icon, enter Intrastat Report List, and then choose the related link.

  2. Open the Intrastat report that you want to export.

  3. On the Export Parameters group on the General FastTab, fill in the fields as described in the following table.

    Field Description
    Nihil Declaration Select if you don't have any trade transactions with European Union (EU) countries/regions and want to send an empty declaration.
    Enterprise No./VAT Reg. No. Enter the enterprise or VAT registration number.
  4. Choose the Create File action.

Business Central automatically includes counterparty information, such as the country/region of origin and partner ID, in the exported file, so you don't need to select this separately.

Next, submit the declaration to the OneGate portal.
