The Overdue Invoice Letter is a essential business document used when payment for issued invoices has not been received by the due date. This document is particularly important in the Danish business context, where it must comply with specific requirements under the Danish Interest Act (Renteloven) and Debt Collection Act (Inkassoloven). The letter serves as a formal reminder and often represents a necessary step before engaging in more formal debt collection procedures. It typically follows after the payment deadline has passed and may be sent in several stages, from initial reminder to final notice. The Overdue Invoice Letter must include specific elements required by Danish law, such as correct interest calculations, reasonable payment deadlines, and clear payment instructions. It's designed to maintain professional relationships while ensuring legal rights to payment are preserved.
