Indexing a Brussels rent in 2026
Formula, PEB correction factor, the new 2025 base of the health index.
- The formula: base rent × new index ÷ starting index. The starting index is the one for the month before signature, the new index the one for the month before the anniversary.
- Conditions: registered lease, valid PEB certificate given to the tenant, written request, no earlier than the anniversary.
- Lease in force before 14 October 2022 and PEB E, F or G: the result is multiplied by a correction factor that depends on the anniversary date.
- Since January 2026, Statbel publishes the health index in base 2025 = 100. Both indices must use the same base.
- A request only works back three months before the month in which it is made. A PEB given after the anniversary allows no back-pay.
What Autopilot does for you: Computes every anniversary, checks the conditions and prepares the letter in the tenant’s language.
