These explanations provide general information and do not replace an assessment of individual circumstances.
Short questions
Which distinction matters?
Payment dates, references and the debt they concern matter. Principal, interest and costs are different items. The parties’ calculations should be compared with payment records and the terms of the relationship.
What can I share for an initial assessment?
The basis of the claim, currency, payment dates and any file or service information matter. Do not send account passwords or unnecessary banking details initially.
Does this guidance establish the same outcome in every case?
No. This page explains general concepts. Documents, the countries involved and the sequence of events can change the assessment. A particular procedure or outcome requires consideration of the individual circumstances.
