Everything you need to know about lease takeovers in Belgium.
FleetSwap is the B2B marketplace for lease takeovers in Belgium. Businesses and self-employed professionals can transfer their current lease contract or take over an existing one.
Placing an ad costs €150 incl. VAT per vehicle. This is a one-time cost — no monthly or recurring fees. Your ad remains active until the contract is taken over.
In a lease takeover, another party takes over your existing contract, including the vehicle and remaining terms. The leasing company must approve. FleetSwap connects both parties.
Yes, as a buyer you pay nothing to FleetSwap. You simply take over the conditions of the existing lease contract.

All vehicles with a current lease contract from a recognized leasing company in Belgium are eligible, both passenger cars and commercial vehicles.

The buyer only pays the monthly lease price of the current contract plus any administrative fees from the leasing company (usually between €150 and €350). FleetSwap charges no commission to the buyer.
Early termination of an operational lease is often expensive (break fees of several months of lease payments). A takeover via FleetSwap is usually much cheaper because a new party assumes the contract without termination costs.
Full operational leasing includes maintenance, insurance, tyres and roadside assistance. Renting (financial lease) only covers usage and you bear maintenance costs yourself. FleetSwap shows both types — use the "Contract type" filter.
This varies by leasing company and is negotiable between transferor and buyer. Most often the fees are shared or paid by the transferor as part of the deal.
Yes, for VAT-registered businesses, recovery remains applicable under standard Belgian rules: 50% recovery for mixed-use passenger cars, 100% for pure commercial vehicles.
FleetSwap is a B2B platform: both transferor and buyer must have a business number (VAT number). Most leasing companies only accept professional takeovers.
Any deposit is settled between transferor, buyer and leasing company. In practice, the buyer reimburses the deposit to the transferor when the takeover is signed.
The remaining mileage budget is shown in every FleetSwap listing (current mileage and annual allowance). You take over the existing mileage package — overruns are settled at contract end.
If desired by the buyer or required by the leasing company, we can arrange a damage assessment by a certified expert.
