Subsidies 2025

Subsidies in 2025: which works are eligible?

If you renovate in 2025, you are often entitled to an interesting “Mijn VerbouwPremie”. This subsidy applies to various energy-efficient renovations to the outer shell of your home, such as façade insulation, roof renovation, replacing windows and glazing, installing solar panels and a heat pump. Even if asbestos is present in your façade or roof, you may qualify for a subsidy from the Flemish government.

But how much do you actually get? And how do you know if you are eligible? In this blog we explain it clearly, so you can easily estimate what your subsidy amount will be and how the application process works. From 1 July 2025, the subsidies of the “Mijn VerbouwPremie” will change. For more information, you can visit the website of the Flemish government.

The amount of your subsidy: what does it depend on?

The subsidy amounts in 2025 depend on two factors:

The type of works you have carried out
Your income category and family situation

There are 4 income groups within the “Mijn VerbouwPremie”:

Single (0 dependents)

Category 4 (<€24,320)
Category 3 (<€24,320 – ≤€42,340)
Category 2 (<€42,340 – ≤€53,880)
Category 1 (>€53,880)

Family (or single) + 1 dependent

Category 4 (<€36,340)
Category 3 (<€36,340 – ≤€59,270)
Category 2 (<€59,270 – ≤€76,980)
Category 1 (>€76,980)

Which works entitle you to a subsidy?

Façade insulation
Roof renovation
Windows and glazing
Heat pump

Subsidy for façade insulation

You can insulate your façade in different ways: on the outside, on the inside or through the cavity wall. The most efficient and sustainable method is insulation on the outside of the façade. This way you create an unbroken insulation shell around your home, prevent thermal bridges and do not lose any space inside. Moreover, this is also the simplest way to comply with current insulation standards and renovation requirements.

Conditions:

Rd-value at least 4.5 m²K/W —> Min. 10 cm EPS
Works carried out by a certified contractor
For directly and indirectly heated spaces. For example, not for unheated outbuildings or detached garages.

Subsidy for roof renovation

You can also insulate the roof in different ways: through the attic floor, on the inside with insulation wool, or on the outside following the sarking principle with rigid PIR boards. Especially the latter method, insulating on the outside with PIR, offers the most durable and effective solution. You create a fully closed insulation shell, avoid thermal bridges and keep the full interior space. It is therefore the best choice for those who want to combine comfort, energy efficiency and long lifespan.

Conditions:

Rd-value at least 4.5 m²K/W —> Min. 10 cm PIR
Installation by a certified contractor
For directly and indirectly heated spaces. For example, not for unheated outbuildings or detached garages.

Subsidy for windows and glazing

Are you replacing your glazing and window frames? Then the following conditions apply:

Windows (glass + frame): maximum Uw ≤ 1.5 W/m²K
Glass (only): maximum Ug ≤ 1 W/m²K
For directly and indirectly heated spaces. For example, not for unheated outbuildings or detached garages.

You can also apply for the subsidy for skylights and roof windows under the roof category, provided that you insulate the roof sufficiently at the same time. This way, the government encourages integrated renovations that improve both the comfort and the energy performance of your home.

Subsidy for heat pump

Ready for a (new) heat pump? Then you are entitled to a subsidy if the heat pump belongs to one of the following types:

Geothermal heat pump
Air/air heat pump
Air/water heat pump
Hybrid air/water heat pump

These technologies not only provide an energy-efficient indoor climate, but also give you a nice financial boost thanks to the subsidy.

How much is my subsidy?

For whom?

A subsidy can be applied for under certain conditions and for specific target groups. In broad terms, the following applies:

Any owner or investor of an existing home can apply for a subsidy, provided that the home is old enough (according to the set age condition).
Owner-occupiers in income category 3 or 4 are eligible for an increased subsidy.
Landlords renting to a housing company can also qualify for a subsidy.
For works on the common parts of an apartment building, the basic subsidy goes to the investor of the entire building, usually the association of co-owners (VME). Owner-occupiers from category 3 or 4 and landlords renting to a housing company can additionally apply for an extra subsidy.
Is the property not a home? Then only non-commercial institutions (such as non-profits) and cooperative companies can receive a subsidy.

👉 Important: always check the exact conditions via the website of the Flemish government to be sure of your right to subsidies.

Depending on personal situation

The exact amount of the subsidy depends on your personal situation. Factors such as your income and the number of dependents are taken into account. The type of renovation work also plays a role: for example, the subsidy for façade insulation is generally higher than that for replacing windows and doors.

Next to this, you can see a visualization with an estimate of the possible subsidies in your situation.

👉 Tip: it’s best to calculate your subsidy yourself via the website of the Flemish government.

Note: from 3 July 2025, a new subsidy calculator will go online.

How to apply for the subsidy?

The application is done entirely online via Mijn VerbouwPremie:

You have the works carried out by a certified contractor (such as Cleys)
After completion, you receive an invoice & accompanying certificate
You submit your application via www.mijnverbouwpremie.be
You receive your subsidy directly into your account, often within a few months

👉 You have up to 2 years after the invoice date to submit your application.

First owner, then subsidy

From 1 July 2025, an important condition applies when applying for a subsidy: you must be the owner of the home at the time of the application. This means that you are effectively already in possession of the property for which you are applying for a subsidy. Are you still a prospective buyer or is the purchase not yet fully completed? Then you must wait until you are officially the owner. This applies to all income categories and is a fixed condition for all types of works.

Note: this ownership condition is in addition to other requirements such as the year of construction of the home, the type of works and the type of dwelling. You can find the full list on vlaanderen.be.
