Debt collection laws in Slovenia
Debt collection laws in Slovenia may differ compared to the regulations in your country. Often following local procedures is much more effective and faster. With a Slovenian lawyer by your side, they can initiate the following procedures on your behalf:
Tožba za izterjavo: Payment order procedure
In the case of an undisputed claim, the Tožba za izterjavo can be initiated. This is a form of a payment order procedure, which allows creditors to receive an enforceable title in a timely and efficient way. After the court makes a judgment, our lawyer, together with the court bailiff, will immediately take the necessary steps to enforce the judgment.
Tožba: Civil proceedings
If the case is disputed and the debtor disagrees with the claim, then the debtor can also be summoned for civil proceedings. Both parties will then have to present their cases in court. In some cases, the court makes a judgement immediately or schedules a hearing instead.
Začasna odredba: Intermediate measures
In certain cases, you can also apply for the Začasna odredba. This is an intermediate measure that allows creditors to protect their assets or legal rights. After creditors apply for the Začasna odredba, legal proceedings must be commenced within a certain period of time.
International debt collection laws in Slovenia
Regardless of where you and your debtor are located, our experts can help creditors with debt collection in Slovenia. If you and your debtor are both nationals of any member state of the European Union, the European Small Claims and European Order for Payment procedures are two legal possibilities that we can initiate on your behalf. Specific conditions apply, which is why it is best to contact our lawyers.
Debt collection enforcement in Slovenia
Once our lawyers have received a judgement against your Slovenian debtor, the judgement will still have to be enforced. Under EU law, judgements obtained in an EU Member State are recognised in other EU countries as well. For the execution of a judgment from your country in Slovenia, your court will issue a certificate. This is then sent to the bailiff in Slovenia together with the judgment. The bailiff can then proceed to ensure that the debt collection judgement is enforced in Slovenia.
Limitation period in Slovenia
An outstanding invoice cannot be collected forever. Once an invoice becomes time-barred, you cannot recover the unpaid amount through court intervention. That’s why it is important to act on time. With different limitation periods across different countries. Our lawyers can tell you more.
