6.1 In Scotland the debt collection process can be split into two stages. Selection takes place during the extrajudicial process, without the intervention of the Court. We do include the Court during the legal process in order to make the Scottish debtor bill.
Because we are a debt collection firm, we are able to assist you in both processes. Many disputes in Scotland are settled during the extrajudicial process, without the intervention of the Court.
7.1 In theory we usually continue with the extrajudicial step of the debt collection method. We are trying to prevent Court interference at this point, as this can be expensive. To receive reimbursement we will contact your Scottish debtor.
7.2 For specific cases, we'll also engage with your Scottish debtor in a face-to-face chat. If the debtor fails to pay within a specified period of time we will launch legal proceedings on your order. The declaration of legal proceedings also persuades the client to pay.
8.1 If your Scottish claimant refuses to pay during the extrajudicial process we can go to the Court of Scotland after negotiation with you. We will always give you preliminary details about the likelihood of success in your debt recovery case. We will also remind you of the potential costs in advance, and will only continue with your permission.
In the case of an uncontested dispute between two parties based in EU Member States (except Denmark).
European order for payment proceedings may be commenced
In your case, the prosecutor who manages the case will decide whether this kind of practice is acceptable.
The claimant typically filled out a standard form for EU Order for Payment procedures and submits this to the Tribunal. Instead, the Court issues a European Transaction Order. The debtor then has 30 days to decide whether they object to the charge.
If no response is obtained within the 30-day timeframe, you can require the Court to finalize the payment order (called a "declaration of enforceability"). This decision is true and enforceable and is recognized in any Member State (except Denmark).
The EU Payment Order is never useful for contested matters (so not in situations where there is a disagreement over the invoice). The benefit of this process is flexibility and low cost (some Member States don't even charge a court fee), but the drawback is that if it gets challenged, the case stops, and if the claimant wants to continue, a regular civil action will have to be launched.
