How does global debt collection work?

Although international debt collection might be more difficult than dealing with a domestic collection case, still you are able to get your money back with the help of a skilled debt collector. But how exactly does it work? That all relies on the nation of your debtor.

The procedure might vary based on the difficulty of the case. For example, if your debtors agree with your invoices but has simply not paid, you can utilize the European Order for Payment. This procedure can be employed if you and your debtor live in any European Union member state other than Denmark. However, if your debtor challenges your invoice or your debtor refuses to accept your claim, this approach is no longer applicable. In this instance, you will need to sue overseas, ideally in the nation of your debtor for the greatest outcomes.This is something that a global debt collection lawyer may help you with. They are familiar with the laws of your debtor’s nation and can speak in your debtor’s native language.

 

What is our International Debt Collection process?

The European Union is an appealing market due to its fusion of so many diverse countries. However, because there are so many rules and regulations, debt collection methods are not harmonizing and hence extremely difficult. It is critical for the European Union to boost commerce between European countries. This excludes difficult debt collecting methods for overseas claims. As a result, there are two legal procedures for dealing with foreign claims: the European Payment Order and the Small Claims procedure.

This will not waste your time with our debt collection professionals on your side. We can work quickly on your behalf to ensure that you file your case with the proper court, allowing you to get your reward as soon as workable.

What is the European Small Claims Procedure?

You can use this approach if both you and your debtor are EU citizens. Furthermore, you must complete the European Small Claims Procedure Form A, which is available on the e-Justice Portal.

You can therefore predict the following:

·       Once completed, we must send the form and supporting documentation to the proper court. We can carry this out without the need of a bailiff.

·       After receiving the form, the court will complete the European Small Claims Procedure Form C. This, together with form A, we will deliver it to the counterparty. After receiving your form, the court will have 14 days to deliver the papers.

·       After that, your counterparty has 30 days to react. They can do so by filling out section two of European Small Claims Procedure Form C and returning it to the court.

·       Within 14 days of the court obtaining the defense, you will get a copy in mail.

  1.        The court has 30 days to reply after obtaining the debtor’s defense.
  2.       The judge may choose to:
  3.         Reach an agreement on the claim.
  4.         Obtain further information
  5.           Should invite both sides to an oral hearing.

The court will let you know as soon as the judge will reach a decision. Without more action, we can execute the ruling in your debtor’s nation. If your debtor does not cooperate, you might employ a bailiff to execute the judgement.

When should you use a Small Claims Procedure?

  •          In the case of a global conflict
  • ·             Both parties live in a European Union member country (except Denmark)
  • ·              In both civil and commercial situations
  • ·              For receivables worth less than €5,000
  • ·              For both undisputed and contested claims

In contrast to traditional court processes, the European Small Claims procedure supplies a faster and less expensive way to recover your foreign claims. DDR Lawyers debt collection attorneys can aid you in initiating the European Small Claims process. Our experts routinely employ this method and can tell you all you need to know about it. 

Obtaining the services of a debt collection specialist for the European Small Claims Procedure

Although you may apply for the European Small Claims Procedure on your own, it is not always as simple. To avoid errors, our foreign debt collection attorneys may aid you in sending and responding to the paperwork. You prevent the chance of the court rejecting your application this way. Because we must translate the forms for the European Small Claims Procedure into the language of the nation where the litigation will take place, they must be professionally designed. Because our local in-house attorneys are proficient in their respective languages, there is always a professional accessible to aid you with your application for the European Small Claims process.

Costs of European Small Claims Procedure

The expenses of the European Small Claims process are significantly cheaper than the costs of conventional judicial proceedings. However, the process of starting legal procedures is subject to court expenses. You may get more information about which costs apply to your case on the courts’ website, depending on where the litigation will take place. Furthermore, we have certain charges for the translation of the forms. If you get a favorable result, you can normally recover a part of your legal fees from the other party.

European payment order

Do you have a dispute that exceeds €5,000? You cannot apply the small claims method to recover your overdue invoice in this circumstance. However, you can apply the European Order for Payment Procedure.

 

Do you have any overseas debtors that are not paying you? The European Payment Order method may be of aid. This is a straightforward, common technique that you can apply in all EU member countries (except Denmark). With the European order for payment method, you may easily, quickly, and affordably collect your foreign claims.

European payment process order

The European order for payment process is a powerful court tool for foreign claims. It is a basic method that works the very same way in every country. As a creditor, you must complete Form A of Annex I of the EEW Regulation and send it to the court together with the accompanying documentation. The court will decide the matter in writing. This technique has relatively low processing timeframes, so you may get answers concerning your debt collecting case soon. Importantly, this surgery is rather inexpensive. The European order for payment procedure, on the other hand, is only proper for uncontested claims. Do you have a disagreement with your debtor over an outstanding invoice? If this is the case, the proceeding cannot continue, and a new judicial procedure must prove to resolve your payment issue.

 

What is the European Order for Payment procedure?

·       Is the debtor not answering on time? We will then consider the payment order complete. The payment order is a legally binding decision that we can execute in any EU member state (except Denmark).

·       We will send a form to the debtor by the court. If the debtor disagrees with the claim, he or she has 30 days to respond.

·       To begin a European order for payment procedure, fill out the normal form. This form is accessible in all European Union official languages.

·       The completed form, along with the accompanying papers, must give to the court.

·       Has the debtor objected to the claim? We will have to stop the European Payment Order procedure and will have to initiate another court process.

 

·       If your debtor does not follow the court’s ruling, must summon a bailiff from your debtor’s nation to execute the court’s decision.

When may we use the European Payment Order?

·       In the event of international war

·       Both parties reside in a European Union member country (except Denmark)

·       In both civil and commercial situations

·       For uncontested claims

Enforcement of international debt collection

What happens once a court gives the decision? How will you get the money you are owed back into your bank account, or your things returned to you? Our attorneys may not only stand for their clients in court, but they can also have measures enforced worldwide. Although this is also dependent on the proper debt collection legislation, our attorneys can provide further information regarding global debt collection enforcement and what it implies in your specific situation.

Debt collector, lawyer, or bailiff?

When it comes to debt collection enforcement, it is critical to understand the many parties involved and how they might aid you.

A debt collection agency’s limitation

We do not allow debt collectors to reclaim cash or commodities from debtors. They can only aid you in pre-legal phase by contacting the debtor; they cannot legally aid you or implement debt collection actions.

Debt collection lawyers on your side

A debt collection lawyer can begin legal actions and represent their client in court if we decide to take legal action. Once our attorneys have achieved a verdict, we can use our worldwide bailiff network to impose sanctions under conditions.

A bailiff's job description

When it comes to international debt collection enforcement, it is critical to understand the functions of bailiffs and what they can and cannot do in each authority. Bailiffs are private organizations that you may appoint yourself in certain nations; yet, in others, these are court-appointed officials that you cannot nominate yourself.

Collection action against your overseas debtor

A judge announces a verdict during legal processes. Your debtor can cooperate freely, or you can take further steps to guarantee that they enforce judgement properly. These extra debt collection enforcement procedures must be conducted in the nation in where your debtor resides.A bailiff can then confiscate your debtor’s assets, such as moveable property or bank balances. We use our vast network to guarantee that will make sure they implement these measures quickly and efficiently. You will not waste time dealing with third parties or arduous processes.

EEX Regulations: the regulations that make debt collection easier to enforce

Originally, when a foreign judgement was delivered to court in your debtor’s country, the judge had to analyze the decision and accept the ruling per that nation’s procedures. With the implementation of the EEX Regulation in 2015, a judgement declared in one EU member state (with a specific certificate) can be directly implemented in another EU member state.

Judgements issued prior to 2015 are not automatically liable to the EEX Regulation; nevertheless, you can request that the judgement be recognized by a foreign court through an executive procedure.Judgments obtained in countries outside than Europe are not subject to the EEX Regulations. Even so, our foreign debt collection attorneys can assist you in having debt collection decisions implemented.

International limitation period

A bill that has not been paid cannot be collected forever. Invoices usually include a restriction term, which means that after a certain date, the claim expires, and you no longer have the right to payment. The responsibility to pay will continue, but you will no longer be able to compel payment by judicial action. The limitation period is frequently different based on the debt collection rules of a country or the sector in which the claim occurs. However, there are many ways to circumvent the restriction period. This might offer you additional time to take the necessary steps to repay your debt.

How does a limitation period on payments operate in practice?

Assume you have delivered goods to a foreign consumer. You submit the matching invoice on April 1, 2017, with a payment term of thirty days. Your consumer, however, does not pay. The invoice is due on May 1, 2017. The three-year restriction period will apply from now on. Your bill will become time-barred on May 1, 2020, and you will no longer be able to take legal action.

As a result, it is critical that you know about the requirements that apply to your case. There are two crucial elements to remember when dealing with restriction periods:

What is the statute of limitations? This typically varies by nation and business and will not necessarily be the same according to your own country’s legislation.

How can you break through a limitation? Countries not only have varied limitation periods, but also distinct measures for breaking a restriction period. While issuing a payment reminder is adequate in some countries, you can only stop it by taking prompt legal action in others.
