I'm from belgium too and the fine is _not_ 500 euros. it's 25 euro or a verbal reprimand from the judge. (kieswetboek art. 210). And that's only if they bother to prosecute you in the first place. The last couple of elections I didn't bother to vote and never got prosecuted.
The 500 euro fine is when you are required to count votes.
