Document background
A Payment Recovery Letter is a crucial document in Singapore's debt recovery process, serving as a formal attempt to recover outstanding payments before pursuing legal action. It should be used when initial payment requests have been unsuccessful and a more formal approach is needed. The letter must align with Singapore's legal framework, including the Limitation Act and fair debt collection practices. It typically includes detailed payment information, history of the debt, clear payment instructions, and potential consequences of non-payment. This document is often the final step before legal proceedings and can serve as evidence in court if litigation becomes necessary.
