You can follow your or the company's orders and see decisions (verdict) on My Pages.
You or the company have several options
You can act in different ways when we decide you are obligated to pay or do what is stated in the claim. The decision is also called a verdict.
Pay or do what is stated in the decision
You must pay immediately, or do what is stated in the decision.
What to do
- Contact the person who has a claim against you (the applicant).
- For example, ask how much you must pay and to which account. Often the person who wants to be paid (the claimant) has requested interest that is decided. Then the debt grows until it is paid.
- Pay directly to the applicant or their representative.
If you cannot pay or do what is stated in the claim
You can contact the applicant or representative if you are unable to pay or do what is stated in the claim. Ask if you can agree on an instalment plan or another solution.
If you think the decision (the verdict) is wrong
You can apply for the court to change the decision. How you do this depends on whether the claim is about you
- paying or doing something, such as return property (ordinary assistance) — you apply for re-trial
- having done something unlawfully, for example settled on someone's land (special assistance) — you appeal.
You apply for re-trial
Apply for re-trial if you think the decision is incorrect. The claim must apply to paying or doing something (ordinary assistance).
You can simultaneously apply to temporarily stop the implementation of the decision (stay of enforcement). If the court agrees, we won't do anything until the court has settled the case.
What to do
You apply by sending us an email or letter within one month from the date of the decision. Write
- the number of the decision and your contact details
- that you want to apply for re-trial and possibly stay of enforcement
- why the decision (the verdict) is incorrect and in what way you want to change it
- why the implementation of the decision should be temporarily stopped (applicable if you have applied for stay of enforcement).
Sign the application yourself or through a representative.
We will send your application to the court. The court does not charge a fee.
The applicant can also appeal if they believe the decision is wrong. The appeal is due within three weeks from the date we made the decision.
You appeal (special assistance)
Appeal the decision to the court if you think the decision is wrong. The claim must apply to special assistance (for example, that you have closed off a road without permission).
You can simultaneously apply to temporarily stop the implementation of the decision (stay of enforcement). If the court agrees, we won't do anything until the court has settled the case.
What to do
You apply by sending us an email or letter within three weeks from the date of the decision. Write
- the number of the decision and your contact details
- that you wish to apply for an appeal and possibly stay of enforcement
- why the decision (the verdict) is incorrect and in what way you want to change it
- why the implementation of the decision should be temporarily stopped (applicable if you have applied for stay of enforcement).
Sign the application yourself or through a representative.
We will send your application to the court. The court does not charge a fee.
The applicant can also appeal if they believe the decision is wrong. The appeal is due within three weeks from the date we made the decision.
What can happen if you don't pay?
You will receive a letter from us if the applicant applies for our help in collecting the debt. Then you must pay us instead. The letter includes a final payment date.
If you don't pay the debt, we investigate whether we can attach your assets. That means we can take your property and sell it to pay your debt.
Record of non-payment
You may get a record of non-payment once you have received a decision (verdict) stating you are obligated to pay.
A company may receive a record of non-payment when we receive an application for payment. The decision alone may lead to a record of non-payment for a company.
