Enterprises wishing to carry out itinerant activities at consumers' homes in the Brussels Capital Region must meet two conditions:
- Be registered in the Crossroads Bank for Enterprises.
- Not have been convicted for a certain number of offences (murder, sexual offenses, abuse of vulnerable persons, theft, extortion, fraud, etc.).
The enterprise must pay 150 euros at an accredited business counter when applying for the authorisation.
The morality requirement applies to the natural person of the enterprise or, in the case of a legal person or an organisations without legal personality, to the natural person responsible for the day-to-day management of the enterprise.
To this end, the enterprise provides the accredited business counter with an extract from the criminal record intended for a public institution and issued less than three months before in the name of that person.
If the person concerned has had his or her main residence abroad as an adult, the enterprise shall provide any document with an equivalent function from the countries concerned.
The authorisation is valid for a limited period of five years. Every five years, the enterprise must therefore apply for renewal of the authorisation at an accredited business counter.
If the natural person in whose name the authorisation was issued leaves the enterprise or changes position, a new authorisation must be obtained.
