BelgiumBelgië / Belgique

Direct answer: Belgium requires motor third-party liability; home and life products are common household covers that should be compared on limits and exclusions.

Motor

Motor third-party liability is compulsory. Optional omnium-style covers add own-damage protection.

Home

Fire, water damage, and theft wording varies; apartment co-ownership often involves building policies plus contents.

Life assurance

Outstanding-balance and term life covers are frequently linked to home loans—compare sum assured to real needs.

What to do this week

  1. Ask which layer is legally required vs optional omnium.
  2. For apartments, clarify building vs contents responsibilities.
  3. Confirm live rules with FSMA.
