Atlas Pro · Notary offices

Technical inspections for notaries

Electrical and charging station reports handed over the same day on site for residential installations (24-48h non-residential), gas and EPC reports delivered within 24-48h before the deed, sent directly to your office, with a fully traceable process to defend your liability.

What can derail an authentic deed

A property sale file in Belgium requires 3 to 5 technical inspections. Here is how Atlas Pro secures their delivery before the deed:

Sales agreement signed, inspections incomplete

Atlas hands over electrical and charging station reports the same day on site for residential installations (24-48h non-residential), and delivers gas and EPC reports within 24-48h, with a turnaround guarantee written into the framework agreement — your signing no longer falls through because of an inspection delay.

📑

Reports delivered at the last minute

Atlas sends the report directly to your office (and to the agency if you wish), in time-stamped PDF format with a QR verification code.

⚖️

Notarial liability risk in case of a missing report

Our process guarantees full traceability: request, intervention, report, electronic signature of the inspector. Your file is defensible in case of dispute.

🌍

Sellers scattered across Belgium

Our 4 offices (Brussels, Vilvoorde, Liège, Ghent) cover all of Belgium with a bilingual FR/NL report of your choice — useful for mixed deeds.

All inspections attachable to the deed

Atlas Contrôle is BELAC-accredited for the full range of mandatory pre-sale inspections.

Property sale bundle — electrical + gas + EPC

The 3 mandatory pre-sale inspections, delivered together, with a legally binding report sent directly to your office.

Electrical inspection when installation > 25 years

Mandatory before selling a property whose electrical installation is more than 25 years old (RGIE 2026 retains this obligation).

EPC certificate before deed

The EPC certificate must be annexed to the authentic deed. Atlas is an accredited PEB certifier in the 3 regions.

Gas sales inspection

Mandatory before sale in Wallonia + Brussels if the installation is > 5 years old. Atlas is CERGA-GAS accredited.

PEB boiler acceptance

Required when a new boiler is installed (useful when selling a recently renovated property).

EV charging station inspection

To be requested if the property is equipped with a charger — otherwise the notary may be held liable for failure to inform the buyer.

Notary questions

Can the deed be signed if the report is non-compliant?

Yes — the non-conformity must be disclosed to the buyer and annexed to the deed. The buyer then has 18 months from the deed to bring the installation up to standard (RGIE 2026, RD 06/10/2025). Atlas provides you with an explicit report listing items to correct, making buyer disclosure easier.

What exactly is the turnaround commitment for an urgent signing?

For Atlas Pro offices: appointment within 48h for the electrical inspection, report handed over the same day on site for residential installations (24-48h non-residential). For gas and EPC inspections: visit within 5 working days, report within 48h after the visit.

Is the Atlas report legally binding?

Yes. Atlas Contrôle is BELAC-accredited (INSP-EI number referenced on belac.be) for RGIE / CERGA / PEB inspections. Our reports carry the electronic signature of the accredited inspector and are binding before Belgian courts on the same footing as any other report from an accredited body.

How does payment work? Advance to the office account or office invoicing?

Two options: (1) direct invoicing to the seller (classic mode, to be settled before signing the deed), or (2) payment by advance on the office account with settlement at signing. The second option simplifies tracking for high-volume offices.

Can Atlas handle Flemish properties for our Brussels office?

Yes. Our Vilvoorde and Ghent offices cover all of Flanders. Reports available in native NL, compliant with Flemish requirements (EPB type A for the EPC in particular). Our commercial team and inspectors are bilingual.
