Am I a producer?
The definitions of “producer” are not formulated in exactly the same way in the three region’s but they always mean the same thing, namely a producer is any natural person or legal entity who is the first to bring mattresses onto the Belgian market or intends them for their own use. This can therefore be a mattress manufacturer as well as an importer, distributor or final seller.
This also applies to online sales or other forms of distance selling by non-Belgian companies to Belgian private individuals.
Care centres, holiday centres, nursing homes .. also fall under the heading ‘producer’ if they import mattresses from abroad.
