What to know in Kraainem
Kraainem is in Flanders, in Flemish Brabant. Works exempt from a permit follow the exemption decree (vrijstellingsbesluit); the simple notification procedure (melding) was abolished on 1 March 2026. Planning permission is applied for on the Omgevingsloket.
Local rules and grants
- Kraainem has a municipal regulation on fences between properties: it appears in the planning extract, not in the regional online tools. Ask the municipality for it before putting up a fence.
- In Kraainem, felling a tree in a residential zone requires an application to the municipality, with a site visit, and replanting will very likely be required.
- Kraainem’s subsoil is mostly loamy and well drained, which suits infiltration; the municipality encourages driveways and entrances in permeable materials.
