What NISABA does

NISABA is a Belgian professional services network founded in 2014 that connects independent specialized notarial jurists with Belgian notary practices (études notariales) requiring flexible workforce support. The company operates as a two-sided curated marketplace: notary offices subscribe to access a vetted network of 15 independent jurists each with at least 5 years of notarial experience and recommendations from minimum two notaries, while the jurists gain access to a portfolio of missions across Belgian notary practices. Headquartered in Wavre, Belgium, NISABA serves 100+ notary offices across Belgium and processes between 500 and 1,200 dossiers annually.

The company offers two subscription tiers: Abonnement Essentiel, a flexible monthly plan handling up to 7 simultaneous dossiers remotely with standard 14-day processing timelines, and Abonnement Premium, a minimum 3-month renewable subscription providing unlimited dossiers, priority SLA tiers (urgent 7 days, very urgent 3 days), choice of collaborating jurist, and both remote and on-site handling options. The pricing model charges a transparent management fee layered on hourly rates that are fully passed through to the collaborating jurist. Underlying the service is an Odoo-based platform that provides real-time mission tracking, planning tools for deadline management, secure GDPR-compliant cloud infrastructure (with Privanot as designated Data Protection Officer), and a continuous evaluation system that surveys both notary clients and collaborator jurists.

NISABA targets Belgian notary offices experiencing temporary workload surges, staff absences, complex dossier requirements, or specialized expertise gaps. The company also runs a supply-side recruitment portal connecting independent notarial professionals with the network. Operations are managed by a three-person core team (Managing Director, Commercial Director, Administrative Assistant), with the 15-jurist network operating as independent contractors. NISABA SRL is privately held with no disclosed external funding, operates exclusively in Belgium, and has no disclosed revenue figures.
