What Consultants in Belgium need from a business account

Consultants and the self employed in Belgium usually want an account that is quick to open, low in fixed cost, and tidy for invoicing and tax. Many work alone, so team features matter less than clear records, easy transfers and a card. Those with foreign clients also want multi currency support and low conversion costs. Watch whether the account gives a Belgian IBAN and supports structured communication for tax payments, since some neobanks issue a foreign IBAN.
