Aangifte in de belasting van niet-inwoners - Déclaration à l'impôt des non-résidents

Many people who have worked in Belgium for a period of time, but now enjoy their retirement in Sweden, received a Declaration of income (“Aangifte in de belasting van niet-inwoners”, “Déclaration à l'impôt des non-résidents”) from the Belgian tax service for the first time in 2020. This is because as of 2020, the Belgian tax service actively looked for persons who are taxable for the Belgian tax on non-residents. However, the double taxation agreement between Belgium and Sweden is still in force, and determines which country can collect tax on your pension.
