Document background
The Unpaid Invoice Past Due Collection Letter is a critical business document used when standard invoice payment terms have been exceeded and formal collection efforts need to be initiated. This document is particularly important in the Nigerian business context, where it must comply with local commercial laws and debt recovery procedures. It is typically issued after multiple informal attempts to collect payment have failed, but before initiating legal proceedings. The letter should include specific details about the debt, reference to the original agreement, payment history, and clear payment instructions, all while adhering to Nigerian debt collection regulations and the Recovery of Debts Act. This document serves both as a formal demand for payment and as potential evidence in future legal proceedings if payment is not received.
