Hi,
I checked the legislation in Belgium for the creation of a non-profit
organization.
Basically, you need:
1. 3 people who form the organization.
2. Their names and signatures, plus a charter of the organization,
which must be deposited in a court of law. The 3 persons need
not be present, they must not have the Belgian identity.
What needs to be stipulated in the charter is described in detail
(in human-readable language) in freely downloadable documents
of the Belgian government; I've read one, it's not so diffucult.
3. It must be published in the Belgian 'Staatsblad' - the official
communications of the government.
Steps 2 and 3 together should cost at most 137 EUR (in 2006, that is...).
4. A list of active members must be deposited in a court of law.
This is free of charge.
That's it. No lawyer is required for all this.
After that, each year a balance must be presented, this
is also free of charge.
Michael.
