Document background
The Discontinuance Of Service Letter is a crucial business document used in Belgium when a service provider needs to formally terminate service arrangements with clients or customers. This document must comply with Belgian Civil Code requirements, consumer protection laws, and sector-specific regulations. It is particularly important in situations where ongoing services need to be terminated in a legally compliant manner, whether due to contract completion, service changes, or other business reasons. The letter should include specific termination dates, reference to relevant contract terms, outline any remaining obligations, and provide clear instructions for the transition period. In Belgium, specific attention must be paid to notice periods, consumer rights, and data protection requirements under GDPR. The document serves both as a legal record and a professional communication tool, helping maintain business relationships while ensuring legal compliance.
