Export intrastat third-party declarations in the Belgian version

Note

In the 2022 release wave 2, Business Central had a redesigned Intrastat experience with enhanced features. Learn more about new Intrastat experince at the Set Up Intrastat Reporting article. This article describes the previous functionality and it can only be used if you haven't upgraded your Business Central and are using some old versions.

The new Intrastat feature will be enabled automatically as of the 2024 wave 2 release while the old Intrastat feature will be deprecated.

In Belgium, you must have a third-party declarant fill out the Intrastat declaration. The third-party declarant must be an external person or company.
