What are the most common debts to government agencies?

Some examples of common debts to government agencies:

• tax debts to the Tax Agency
• debts to CSN. These may arise because you’ve taken a study loan and have difficulties paying it back.

To whom should you pay your debt, and when?

The government agency, e g the Tax Agency, wants you to pay and therefore submits a claim for your debt to us. You have to pay the debt to us, the Enforcement Authority. The deadline for paying will be specified in the letter.

If you think the claim is incorrect

If you think the claim is incorrect you have to contact the government agency that made the claim. Note, however, that even if you do that you still have to pay the debt to us by the payment deadline.

What happens if you don’t pay?

If you don’t pay on time we will begin an investigation into your financial situation. We may then attach, or seize

• money from you salary
• things, i e your property

This means that we deduct money from your salary or sell your property, such as a car or a tenant-owned flat, in order to pay your debt.
