The Federation of Belgian Chambers of Commerce is the umbrella organisation of all accredited Chambers of Commerce in Belgium and Belgian Chambers abroad. Together with our members, we strive for the sustainable growth of enterprises and a a healthy and stimulating business climate in Belgium, as to make a fundamental contribution to the prosperity and well-being of our country.
We want to develop the Belgian Chambers of Commerce into the reference partner for companies doing sustainable and international business. Locally anchored within an international network, the Chambers are better placed than anyone else to guide businesses at every level: local, regional, national, European and international.
Through its accreditation programme, the Federation guarantees the quality of the services provided by the Chambers to their members.
Coordination of the issuing of certificates of origin and ATA carnets by the Belgian Chambers, with a strong emphasis on administrative simplification and digitization.
Support for the Chambers and their members through the international Chamber network (bilateral Chambers, EUROCHAMBRES, ICC) and through the CONNECTS digital platform.
Encourage the Chambers and companies to find sustainable solutions to societal challenges.
We are aware of the social role that chambers of commerce play in the economic environment. We are committed to encouraging and guiding companies on sustainable entrepreneurship as well as integrating sustainability ourselves into our own strategy and operations.
Sustainability is a source of continuous innovation that helps to proactively address risks and seize opportunities for a better future. The economy of the future is climate-neutral, circular and socially inclusive. We want to contribute to this transition.
For the Belgian Chambers of Commerce, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (the SDGs) provide the framework for this commitment.
We are driven by our mission and want to offer added value to the Chambers so that they can assist companies in the best possible way and at every stage of their growth process. The higher the quality of our services and the better the services provided by the Chambers, the more efficient companies can work.
The Federation is ISO certified since 2001.
We are an open organisation, with transparent communication, clear objectives and room for the personal development of our employees. But openness also means that we are a window on the world and that we believe in the power of international cooperation in a spirit of mutual respect.
In order to perform our tasks to the best of our ability, we have a small team of experienced, competent and, above all, dedicated employees.
