Day 0 What the claim rests on
The invoice and the basis of the claim
A claim is only as strong as the documentation behind it. These are the concepts that govern when a payment falls due, and what you must be able to produce if the debtor disputes the claim.
3 concepts
- Due date (forfaldsdato) The due date is the day by which payment must have been received at the latest — and the day from which interest and reminders can start to run. Default interest runs from this day
- Invoice (faktura) The invoice is the document that makes the claim concrete — and the evidence the whole collection process later rests on. Amount, date, parties must state
- Payment terms (betalingsbetingelser) Your payment terms are the conditions you sell on — including how much credit the customer gets, and what late payment costs. Net 30 typical b2b
