calculate_rpv Read-only

Calculates the Belgian procedural indemnity (rechtsplegingsvergoeding / indemnité de procédure) for a claim: the minimum, base and maximum amounts in EUR, indexed for the given date. The result includes an explanation: the calculation steps (tariff, bracket, unindexed Royal Decree amounts, indexation), the judge's discretion under Article 1022 Judicial Code and, for a partly non-monetary claim, how the two tariffs compare. Use it to explain how and why the amount was reached.

court_typestring, required

Court/procedure type: "general" = General rate (art. 2 KB 26/10/2007): all courts and tribunals, including labour courts for e.g. employment-contract disputes. "voorzitter" = President of the Labour Court, proceedings under arts. 579 and 1017(2) Judicial Code (occupational accidents/diseases, social security). "arbeidsrechtbank" = Labour Court (arbeidsrechtbank / tribunal du travail), proceedings under arts. 579 and 1017(2) Judicial Code. "arbeidshof" = Labour Court of Appeal (arbeidshof / cour du travail), proceedings under arts. 579 and 1017(2) Judicial Code.

datestring

Optional reference date (YYYY-MM-DD), usually the date of the judgment. Defaults to today. Uses the indexation in force on that date.

amountstring

Amount in dispute in EUR. A number, or a Belgian-formatted string such as "2.500,50". Omit for a claim that cannot be valued in money.

localestring

Language of the card and the calculator link. Always set it to the language the user writes in (nl, fr, de or en; use "en" for any other language). Defaults to "nl".

no_monetary_valueboolean

True when (part of) the claim cannot be valued in money. If an amount is also given, both the non-monetary amount and the amount bracket are returned.

get_indexation_status

Returns the CPI indexation currently in force for the procedural indemnity amounts, the latest Belgian CPI (base 2004), the estimated date of the next indexation, and the monthly CPI of the last five years. A new multiplier is the CPI of the month that reaches the threshold divided by the start index 105.78, so it is at least next_indexation_minimum_multiplier; do not derive it from the current multiplier.
