No increase in insurance tax from April 1, 2026
The planned increase in the tax on insurance operations from 9.25% to 9.60% has not yet been approved. This means that the current rate of 9.25% remains applicable to most non-life insurance policies.
Due to the uncertainty surrounding this measure, insurers have applied different approaches in recent weeks. In some cases, premiums were already calculated using the higher tax rate, while others were still based on the existing rate.
If a higher tax was temporarily applied, this will be corrected automatically. This will be done either through a refund or via an adjustment in a future premium. In most cases, the amounts involved are limited, and no action is required on your part.
For Van Dessel policies, no increased tax has been applied, so no further action is needed.
We continue to closely monitor this matter. Although the measure is expected to be approved in the coming months, the exact implementation date is not yet known. Further updates will follow as soon as more clarity becomes available.
