The two mandatory inspections to sell your property in Belgium, carried out by a single accredited body.
The EPC and electrical inspection are both legally required when selling property in Belgium. Your notary will request both documents.
The EPC certificate is mandatory from the publication of the sale listing. It indicates the energy performance of the property and its label (A to G). Without an EPC, you cannot legally publish your property listing.
The electrical inspection report (RGIE) is required by the notary to sign the deed of sale. Without this document, the sale is blocked. Whether compliant or not, the report must exist.
The notary cannot pass the deed without a valid EPC certificate and an electrical inspection report.
Plan ahead to avoid any delay.

Is the EPC certificate mandatory to sell?
Yes, the EPC certificate is mandatory from the moment the property is put up for sale. It must be mentioned in the property listing (energy label, consumption) and provided to the notary for the deed. Without an EPC, you cannot legally publish your listing.
Is the electrical inspection mandatory to sell?
Yes, the electrical inspection report compliant with the RGIE is required by the notary when selling a residential property. Without this document, the notary cannot pass the deed.
Can the EPC and electrical inspection be done at the same time?
Yes, that is even the most practical option. Certinergie carries out both expertises in-house and can schedule them together or separately. In both cases, you benefit from the Combo discount of 10€.
Can the inspections be done separately?
Absolutely. The EPC is often needed first (for the listing), while the electrical inspection can be carried out later, before the deed of sale. The Combo discount of 10€ applies in all cases, whether the inspections are done together or separately.
What are the lead times to receive the reports?
The EPC certificate is generally available within 48 to 72 hours after the visit. The electrical report is available immediately after the inspection. In emergencies, Certinergie can intervene within 24-48 hours.
What is the validity period of the documents?
The EPC certificate is valid for 10 years. The electrical inspection report is valid for 25 years if compliant. If non-compliant, the buyer has a legal period of 12 to 18 months to bring the installation into compliance.
Can Certinergie transmit the reports to the notary?
Yes, Certinergie transmits your reports directly and digitally to the notary of your choice. You have nothing to do. Your file arrives complete and compliant.
Can you sell with a non-compliant electrical inspection?
Yes, the sale can take place even with a non-compliant report. The report is mentioned in the deed and the buyer has a legal period to bring the installation into compliance.
