Document background
The Letter of Termination of Service is a crucial document used in Belgian business contexts to formally end a service relationship between parties. It must comply with Belgian legal requirements, including specific notice periods and formal elements prescribed by the Belgian Civil Code and related legislation. This document is typically used when either party wishes to end an ongoing service arrangement, whether it's a fixed-term contract reaching early termination or an indefinite-term agreement being concluded. The letter should include clear identification of the service agreement being terminated, effective date, notice period, and any transitional arrangements. Special attention must be paid to Belgian-specific requirements regarding notice periods and formalities, particularly when dealing with long-term service providers or when the termination might impact employment-like relationships.
