Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote MCP server for Belgian and Dutch legal and fiscal lookups, returning official-source citations for company, VAT, case law and legislation references.

What you can do
  • Look up Belgian company data by KBO/BCE number and validate EU VAT numbers via VIES
  • Resolve Belgian and Dutch legislation references and search Justel by keyword
  • Resolve Belgian and Dutch case law identifiers (ECLI) and EU CELEX numbers to official URLs
  • Fetch and clean the full text of official Belgian or European legal documents from allowlisted sources
  • Prepare Belgian notary meetings with document checklists, questions and source links
  • Return Flemish inheritance-tax brackets, validate IBAN structure and fetch ECB euro reference rates
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs grounded answers about Belgian or Dutch law, company registration, VAT validity, case law or legislation, or when preparing a Belgian notary appointment. It suits users who want official source links rather than free-form legal commentary.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint at agent.co-legal.be; no package, API key, environment variable or header is declared. Network access to the endpoint is needed.
Before you install
Informational only and explicitly not legal advice; checklists do not certify legal completeness and the optional region does not determine tax jurisdiction. IBAN validation only checks structure, not whether an account exists. legal_read fetches documents from an allowlist of official sources and caps output at 30,000 characters.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Legal Lookup in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/be.co-legal%2Flegal-lookup/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows
