Available tools 13

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

legal
legal_lookup
Resolve a Belgian legislation reference to its canonical Justel URL. Give the code (BW, WVV, WIB92, VCF, WBTW, WBE, Sw, Ger.W) and optionally the article number. Example: code=BW, article=4.71.
legal_read
Fetch and clean the full text of an official Belgian or European legal document (HTML or PDF) from a URL on the allowlist of official sources (e.g. ejustice.just.fgov.be, eur-lex.europa.eu). Capped at 30,000 characters. Pair with legal_lookup / eurlex_lookup to get the URL first.
legal_search
Keyword-search Belgian legislation on Justel and return a search URL plus relevant code hints, for when the exact reference is unknown.
nl_legal_lookup
Resolve a Dutch statute reference to its wetten.overheid.nl URL. Give the code (BW4, Successiewet, Wet IB 2001, Wet OB 1968, BW6, Awb, Sr, Rv) and optionally an article. Example: code=BW4, article=4:63.
ecb
ecb_rates
Return the official daily ECB euro reference rate 1 EUR = X currency for a given ISO 4217 code (e.g. USD, GBP, CHF).
ecli
ecli_lookup
Resolve a Belgian ECLI (European Case Law Identifier) to canonical public lookup URLs (EU e-Justice + Juportal) plus court metadata. Example: ECLI:BE:CASS:2020:ARR.20200101.1.
erfbelasting
erfbelasting_tarieven
Flemish inheritance-tax (erfbelasting) rate brackets, parsed deterministically from the in-force Flemish Tax Code (VCF art. 2.7.4.1.1) — for ALL heir categories: direct line & partners, siblings, and others. Omit `categorie` to get all three; the rates come from the current official text.
eurlex
eurlex_lookup
Resolve an EU CELEX number to its canonical EUR-Lex landing URL plus metadata (sector, document type). Example: 32016R0679 (GDPR).
iban
iban_validate
Validate an IBAN's structure (ISO 13616 check digits via MOD-97 + country length). Pure compute; confirms well-formedness, not that the account exists or is active.
kbo
kbo_lookup
Look up a Belgian company by its KBO/BCE enterprise number (10 digits, e.g. 0403.170.701). Returns the official name, status, legal form and start date from the public KBO register, with the source URL.
notaris
notaris_dossiercheck
Prepare a Belgian notary meeting: document checklist, questions and official source links for property, inheritance, gifts, care mandates, marriage contracts or BV incorporation. Optional region; no personal data, live verification, tax calculation or certification of legal completeness.
rechtspraak
nl_rechtspraak_lookup
Resolve a Dutch ECLI to canonical case-law URLs (Rechtspraak.nl details, the free Open Data content API, and EU e-Justice). Example: ECLI:NL:HR:2021:1102.
vies
vies_validate
Validate an EU VAT number against the official EU VIES service. Returns validity plus, where the member state exposes it, the registered trade name and address. Example: BE0403170701.

Legal Lookup — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Legal Lookup do?
It exposes 13 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: ecb_rates, ecli_lookup, erfbelasting_tarieven, eurlex_lookup, iban_validate, kbo_lookup and 7 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Legal Lookup working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 107 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
Did Legal Lookup ever remove tools?
Yes. erfkompas_flows, erfkompas_step are no longer exposed — we recorded the date each one disappeared. A tool vanishing usually means a breaking change for anything that depended on it.
How do I connect Legal Lookup?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Legal Lookup need an API key?
No. Legal Lookup completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 13 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Legal Lookup?
It answers our handshake in 107 ms on average, which is faster than 92% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
